A 25-foot-tall fiberglass 'Muffler Man'-mold cowboy giant, dating to the 1960s when this style of statue was produced to advertise tire and muffler companies. It now stands outside Just Bob's Auto & Truck Repair at 500 1st Ave in Greeley, east of Highway 85 at 5th Street, holding the shop's sign. It is one of only two known original Muffler Man giants remaining in Colorado (the other being the pitchfork-holding cowboy at Lazy T Ranch near Longmont, roughly 40 miles away). Local reporting (Greeley Tribune, cited via regional radio coverage) notes the figure once wore a hat that has since gone missing.
