Roberts Engines

7148 Upper Black Creek Church Road

(252) 239-1844

Monday-Friday 8:00 AM - 5:00 PM

Roberts Engines has recycled cars into used OEM parts since 1977 on a yard of more than 30 acres in Lucama, just outside Wilson, with hundreds of late-model parts vehicles in stock. Low-mileage engines and transmissions lead the inventory, followed by rear ends, axles, alternators, starters, radiators, insurance-quality body parts, used tires, wheels, glass, and batteries. New aftermarket parts are also available. In-stock, non-electrical parts on certain late-model vehicles carry a standard six-month warranty, and an extended warranty program is offered. Parts go out by local delivery or nationwide shipping, and staff run a free parts-locating service through a network of auto recyclers when the yard lacks a part.
