Royal Ostrander established Royal Wheel Alignment in 1939. Those were the days of Ford Model A, Cadillac LaSalle, Diamond T, and Willys. Royal’s son, Russ, and his wife, Dorothy, took over the business. After 12 years of working for the Ostranders, Evan Barnes purchased the business in 1985.
Evan is the “old guy,” of the business, working it for 40 years, driving the same route to work the entire time. He worked until 2020. As Evan looks back on his time in the business, he notes how much has changed through technology. What hasn’t changed is that the small town feel that Royal Ostrander and his son, Russ, fostered during their ownership continues to this day.
Four generations of customers can reminisce about coming into our shop with their grandpa. That’s why one of our business models is “Your Grandpa’s garage with modern technology.”
At Royal Wheel Alignment, we’ve been keeping you between the lines since 1939.
Scott bought the business in January of 2021 after working at I-90 Service for over 25 years on mechanical services such as brakes, struts, suspension and other mechanical duties. Scott promises to give the same great service customers have come to expect since 1939.
