Default How many OSH supplies are on your car?

i know we have all done it! How many of you guys have gone to orchard supply for nuts, bolts, hoses, clamps, and custom stuff?

just thought it would be interesting to see how many people have, and what they have got there for their fbody or ybody....


me so far. ive done my throttle body bypass with hose, and clamps from there.
got bolts and nuts for my panhard bar, strut tower brace, and LCAs. hmmm i kno theres alil more. but rite now thats only what i can think of...

O and for those of you NOT in cali...Lowe's, ACE and Home Depot


so what bout you guys?

We used to have one years ago near where I used to live on the corner of Beach and Rosecrans in La Mirada CA. They would carry lots of nuts, bolts, and military surplus stuff.

I've never heard of the place either and I've lived in Massachusetts, Florida, and South Carolina. Maybe it's only in California. It's probably just like Home Depot or Lowes which are both places I know. I get a lot of electrical stuff and brass plumbing fittings to use on cars at those places.

wow...i guess it is just a cali store. yea its kinda like a lowes and home depot. there everywhere here. since none of the auto parts stores carry bolts and nuts that you would ussually need. and dealer is ussally closed @ the time you run into a problem on a sunday afternoon while trying to get a new part on, and strip a nut

i know thers a few that have been there.
