Those are good ones. I once saw a "car care" (I dunno... a repair business?) shop that had a sign out front that said "_omplete Car Car." The "C" was missing for the longest time so I wondered how "omplete" the work was.

I saw a sign on a radiator repair shop that said "Best place to take a leak".

And one on a septic tank cleaning truck. "Plugged up? Let us pump you"
