There's Marengo Auto Recycling(?) on 229 between Sparta and Marengo...
There's also Rusk Brothers on 229 near Ashley. They actually started as an indie ACVW repair shop, but they're now a mega-pick-n-pull.

That's funny, I've driven down 229 a million times and never noticed.
Of course, usually those places dont have a big sign or anything out front....
Tax return is coming, need to get my brake upgrade started.

That's funny, because Marengo Auto Recycling DOES have a big sign out front
Anyway, you know how a few miles past Highland High, there's a bunch of curves that people take at like 65, but it says to go 35? They're on those curves.
If you get to Castle's Gas and Deli, you've missed it.
And, Rusk Brothers is a HUGE place, with a decent sized building with (in HUGE lettering) "RUSK BROS" on the front of the building. Literally, it's JUST outside of Ashley, on this side. (I'm in Marengo, FWIW.)
Thanks, might have a "spy" trip this weekend out there and see what they have. Talked to my buddy who has his own body/custom paint shop,
http://www.evolindustries.com ( I made his website
) and he said they have a really good selection and for the most part have the place sectioned off and organized pretty well. He said it was a ton better than that U-wrench-it place in Columbus.
Thanks for the directions. Dont think I've gone much farther past the turnoff for 71 out that direction like, ever.

Oh, who here's on OhioVW?
Just mentioning it... for our cars, getting cheap stealership parts is a Good Thing(tm).
Join there, and PM bbuxton with your first and last name - then, the parts guy at Byers will get the updated list, check to make sure you're on it, and you'll get parts at wholesale prices. w00t!

I had a girl friend from Ohio...she was crazy.
Ohio is land of the crazy people...Charles Manson...Cincy...Dahmer was from there too...but then moved to milwalkee...
But then again they have Wright-Patterson...and the football hall of fame...so you gotta love em.
I had a girl friend from Ohio...she was crazy.
There was an insane girl that I tried to go out with... (no, really, she was insane, like she had been to a mental hospital before :lol: )
Anyway, she suddenly decided that she hated me and tried to get me to kill myself. WTF? :roll: :lol:

Well I think this girls problem was she was never commited.
I knew it was over when I was standing in my bedroom doorway with a loaded pistol in my hand thinking about going downstairs to show her empty skull what daylight is like...then I decided Id just as well NOT go to prison. At that moment it was almost worth it. I like being able to sit down without pain.
