Bin 2-2 / the parts room

Walk the racks before you make the drive.

The aisle in the order you would walk it: the engine racks, the high shelving, the part pulled for you, and the vehicles out front.

The engine racks

Used engines sit wrapped on wooden pallets along steel racks that run the length of the Quonset. Each shelf is painted with its own bin number, so a part on the phone is a part someone can walk straight to.

Racked high, aisle deep

The far end of the room is the blue and orange racking, loaded to the top beam with parts wrapped in black plastic to keep the weather and the dust off them until they leave.

Pulled and waiting

Call ahead and the part comes off the rack before you set out. It is wrapped, on the floor and ready to load when you pull in, which matters when the drive to Adams Center Rd is a long one.

Vehicles, not just parts

Mills also sells used vehicles: rebuildables for the people who want a project, and repaired vehicles for the people who want to drive home in one.

Paint color code, by Amanda
Trip
200+ miles each way

A family had spent months finding this fender in the wrong color or with its own dents. The one on the Mills rack was checked against the Pilot's paint code before it went out the door.

Amanda even took time to check the color code and it was a match. Our daughter drove 200+ miles each way to get the fender. Then we had it installed and the joy on our granddaughters face was worth all of it!

I got there an hour just before closing, and the guy there told me they were closed because the power was off most of the day. I made a long trip from southern Indiana only to find this out. The guy asked if I had them already pull the part which they had. He said no problem I will get you loaded up and taken care of! He could have easily turned me away but he didn't. I was treated great and taken care of quickly.

Asked at the counter before anyone asks a price.

The rest are a phone call away. Every question here has the same short answer: call (260) 493-1553.

The year, make and model of the vehicle and the part you are after. If it is a body panel, the paint code helps, because matching the color means you are not paying a body shop to repaint it. With that we can check the racks and tell you what is on the shelf.

Yes. Call ahead and ask for the part to be pulled, and it will be off the rack and waiting when you get to Adams Center Rd. Customers driving in from the other end of the state do exactly this so the trip is not wasted.

Delivery and shipping are available on most parts. Say where it needs to go when you call, and we will confirm on the phone whether your part can ship or is better picked up at the yard.

No. Mills sells new and used auto parts at a fair price, and also sells used vehicles, both rebuildables and repaired vehicles. Ask about both prices on the same call if you are weighing new against used.

Monday to Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM. The yard is closed Saturday and Sunday, so if you are driving a long way, call (260) 493-1553 first and have the part pulled.

Year, make, model, and the part.

That is enough for somebody to walk the racks and look. If you are driving in, ask for it to be pulled and it will be waiting. If you are not, ask about delivery or shipping.
