Their Products & Services
What exactly can RAPTAS offer its customers? Read more!
- Auto parts – the heart of the business is the auto parts which they stock for most makes and models, available for in-store or online purchases. Reconditioned engines and cylinder heads are the specialties of the house!
- Car wrecking – they buy old cars, so if you have one lying idle in the yard, why not give it (or some of its usable parts) another lease on life? Ask RAPTAS for a quote. Also, if you're searching for auto parts and can't find them in their eBay store, check out their website for cars they're Currently Dismantling and see if they have your make/model.
- Statewide delivery – they deliver statewide and can facilitate shipping to other states.
- Machine shop services – they’ve been doing machining services for 30 years! So, if selling auto parts is the heart of their business, then perhaps their machine shop is their life! They’ve specialised in it for so long it deserves a separate paragraph! Which is what the next section is all about.
