The best Hardware Store EVER was Coast to Coast Hardware in Wapkaoneta..... But I did spend the first 13 yrs of my life there..... I would ride my tricycle down the aisles

Free Coffee and Donuts every morning.... The old timers would come in and hang out and talk about everything going on in the town, sure don't see that anymore..... Not only that... During EMERGENCY'S. Snow storms, Flooding, ect... My dad would open the store during the night for anyone who would need it..... I remember one time he got a call from a guy who's sump pump stopped working during a huge rain storm at 2AM.... He drove down to the store and opened it just for him.....

Then Tru-Value and Servistar merged into Tru-Serv and bought out Coast to Coast.... A little Hardware History for ya..... :wink:

Can't forget about Knox. They were HUGE in Minnesota way back .I looked so forward to going with my father just about every Saturday morning and raiding the doughnuts, cookies and juice :twisted:

Have no clue if they're still around, I doubt it :roll:

HEY BUDDY!!!! I'm still digging in WV... for a special forces training facilty.... about 2-3 weeks left....
Going to be in Columbus this weekend so I can get some tags for the trailer....

After that we have a sewer line that is about 30 Miles long in WV.... and then a 30-70 mile fiber-optic line running from Western WV into OHIO.... So I'll be able to attend some meet n greets once we get into Ohio.....

None of it is for sale. Garage decoration.

Now that's a load of crap :goink:

Not really. If any of these parts were complete and 100% functional, then I might consider selling them.

Take the Mopar Grille Guard for example. Yeah uh I didn't keep up with the mounts after I gave up trying to install it on my '06. Who knows where everything is, so it hangs up on the wall now.

Hey, what about Hartville Hardware? For those of you who were here in February...What did ya think? How does it compare to those you mentioned?

Haven't been on here for a few days cuz I was "busy." Was catching striped bass in Raritan Bay, the bay between NYC and New Jersey. Look closely in the third pic and you can see the Freedom Tower (formerly World Trade Center) and the Verrazano Narrows Bridge.

Cold, but FUN!

Bob

Hartville hardware is in a class all by itself
If I lived near there its the only place I'd shop at

Nice looking fish, when's the fish fry happening :wink:
