Goodmroning I went to Colvin Motor parts. To purchace auto paintthe Paint ASSOCIATE at that location is so DISRESPECTFUL and need to be retrain in the CUSTOMER SERVICE . I was the first person on line when he walked pass me 4 times, he never said give him a minute or good morning i was there at 9:55 am until 10:00.A second customer came to the counter next to me and the Associate said what up, when I proceed to give my order I was then told I,m not talking to you I talking to him. meaning the second person in line. If i could give a minus 1 i would.

I have also gone to this business my whole life. Great staff. Some I still recognize. I have since moved from merrick but when I need auto parts I drive back. Almost always have the part in stock if not they get it ASAP. I also know that I will get a quality part from them.Recently the staff really bailed me out on a break job that went awry. Even bringing the part to my home.It’s so great to see a mom and pop type small business that does it right and is still in business!Let’s show them our support 👍

I used to go crazy trying to find parts all over the island until I found Colvin. These guys are the best! Extremely knowledgeable and carry parts for a WIDE range of vehicles (new and old). They also offer a host of other services. When in doubt give these guys a call!

Another staple to the community great service and if no one else can get it Colvin will!!

I did something very stupid. I used Gorilla Tape on my car, and when I pulled it off, well it took part of the paint.My car is 30 years old, but they were able to match the color, and gave me a small can of paint for the touch ups. It matched perfectly!!!The men were extremely helpful and very patient with me, (being I’m a woman).You can’t go wrong at “Colvin Motor Parts” for car parts and car paint.

Colvin is a local auto parts store that varies from the big box stores in a few ways. Personalized customer service, attention to detail, carrying quality parts brands & actually having hard parts in stock differentiate Colvin from the competition.Then theres the in-house fully competent machine shop that can dobeverything from cut brake rotors & make hydraulic lines to full engine rebuilds. The box stores cant, and dont do any of that for you.

Place is awesome! Worth the trip

Great people I have everything they dont have everything to get it way they cant get it for you and Ill tell you where to go

Only place to ask me if I wanted a torque wrench in inch-pounds or foot-pounds when I was pricing out a new one. Helpful staff👍

A really unique and complete auto part in all long island, the people on the counter know what theyre doing.Patrick will go out of his way to help you out every time very knowledgeable.vasko is the star with the Latino customers

This store has been in Merrick for my entire life. And I will never stop coming here. When I was a kid they always had what I needed, or helped me with what I needed. The knowledge they can share unbeatable. As I grew up my business has done plenty of stuff with them too. And really. I couldnt ask for a better place to call my auto store. Everyone has bad days. But this place really doesnt have many. And!!They have colvin cat!Nothing else to say. This place is awesome

They always have what u need!

Seem to always be able to get quality parts other places cant, they know their stuff, have in house machine shop. I drive past 2-3 big brand shops to get to them. Theyre actually across the street from advanced and still going strong.

Not excessive with the price

Always very friendly and helpful staff.

They have amsoil!!!! This place is run by old time gear heads and machinists. They have things that only real racers would love including specialty oils. Like motul and amsoil, they have everything for old 1950 and up, too new cars. If you need something noone has give them a call... they also have a fully functioning machine shop.

Fantastic customer service, have been using Colvins as long as I have owned vehicles. They have virtually everything and if they dont carry theyll order that day or for the next. Highly recommended!!!!

A great machine shop and parts place that has been around for years. These are seasoned fellows that operate this place. Questions are more likely to be answered.

Great Staff with decent prices. q

I have been going there for years and I always go home with the correct parts. I do buy stuff online to save some money but they are pretty competitive as well as offering good advice. The most important part is they have great stock. When your in a pinch they come through.

Great as usual, they have the parts, old and new and their prices are competitive. Try to go there for all my needs.

Always friendly and helpful

Friendly people- top quality parts.

These guy know auto parts the machinist walking with a limo I bet them guys could fix that also I have never had a question they couldnt answer and explain to you how to fix it good work

When you go here they usually have wat you need .if you go in the am time pack a lunch

The best place on the island to get any part you need always helpful been going to Colvin for 20 years now

Very good auto parts store wont help your whole arm

Old school auto parts and machine shop. The type of place that really bends over backwards to help you. Very good pricing, extremely knowledgeable staff and great selection. When you need a top notch auto parts store, this is what you want. Often has a small wait due to how great these guys are. I have found hard to get parts here many times. Honest and straightforward. Wish there were more like this still around.

A nice little mom and pop kinda place. The atmosphere was very good, I was greeted the moment I came in the door. The workers were very friendly and knowledgeable.. a very good place, would definitely recommend a friend to go there.

They had everything I needed what they didnt have they delivered to my shop 3 hours later for free!!. The qualified technicians in the Machine Shop were very helpful. I had two Marine Big Blocks rebuilt for notably less than other shops wanted to charge. I put a hundred and fifty hours this is Summer never skipped a beat. If Youre Building you need to be here. Tell them the Henry sent you

Great place to get all your auto needs .I have been using them fir decades..Pat and Daryl are the main counter guys i use..very Knowledgeable ..Keep up the great work guys !

Great employees and parts selection. Machine shop is great as well.

Old school parts store who takes care customers. Has Amsoil products. And lots miscellaneous parts u wont find in advance or autozone.Thank U Colvin Motor Parts.

You can find almos everything here. Very professional personnel.

Very accommodating. If they dont have what you need, they will get it the same day or next day...Better than ordering the item on the net, having to wait several days, pay for shipping.You end up paying the same money.

The best auto parts store iN THE North east.

They were quick and very knowledgeable

Great store always have what you need. Very friendly staff! Recommend to anyone

If you are looking for a part....they got it!!!

Mr. Gaul is the absolute best. He came outside and actually worked on my car then sold me the part that I needed. What an amazing place!

Friendly staff good selection

Great place they know what they are doing used a head assembly to get fixed it was perfect no more auto zone for me

This place is definitely more helpful than the average auto parts store. Theyre also able to help you find parts for older car classics. Also has a machine shop

Fast and efficient service. The staff seem to know what you need and dont redirect you anything else.

Love to buy my auto paint here. Full machine shop and fabrication on premises. Very reasonable prices. I just wish they were open till 9pm.

Great auto parts store. They have almost everything and if they dont have it theyll get it in within a few hours at least in my cases. My Dad and I have been going there for years for jetskis, boats, cars and classic cars.

Cant understand what happened to this business. It used to be an A1 auto store now its just another in the bunch their customer service is very poor and specially their machine shop. never gets anything done. first bad experience. I call a few days ago to see if they had a three-quarter tap and die after holding on for 15 minutes they told me that they did not have it. I was on my way towards eastern Long Island and I said let me stop and make sure that they dont have it. like I thought they did have it the guy on the phone was just too lazy to look for it. And their machine shop is the worst. After they have your parts sitting there for two days doing nothing and then tell you some lame story. the machine wasnt working right. So forget it people theres no more good old fashion auto parts store around here.

Awesome place Vasco is the best to deal with theyll have everything you need at the right price

Knowledgeable, well stocked with a great staff.

They alway seem to be able to get hard to find parts. The counter men are very knowledgable and their machine shop does great work.

Jimmy is great . Helps out right away

You will not find a better place on Long Island.Full service engine shop.Years of knowledge that they willingly share.And if they dont know they find out and get back to you.

Great service, good price

Had what I needed when I needed it. Fair prices and helpful staff

Great place for car part fix

If they dont have it......you dont need it

Called for parts they didnt have in stock, by the time I got to the store they had them sitting on the counter already invoiced. In and out in minutes. Great service and will use them again.

Best auto parts store on earth. Always great quality parts never any 💩. Great people and very helpful.🚗

Great machine shop...rebuilt my 48 buick

A real auto parts store with informed counter men. Also great machine shop.

This is the best auto parts store hands down my family has been coming here for years.

Great old school auto parts store with a crew of knowledgeable guys working there. Full machine shop service. A great place in a world filled with franchise McAutoparts shops its great to have Colvin in the neighborhood.

The custom service was absolutely horrible. I called asking if they machine cylinder heads and the guy said yes then immediately put me on hold and came back with a price for a valve job, then got mad at me when I told him I wanted the price of a port and polish even though I didnt tell him anything because he put me on hold so fast. Then after he got mad at me, he put someone else on the phone who told me a port and polish was too expensive and I should just get new heads. Thanks guys, youre wonderful.

Place is awesome. They always have everything from hardware, nuts& bolts to a full engine machine shop. Great store, easy to deal with.

Fantastic I love my experience cant wait to do it again

I choose them over any auto part store ever. Family owned. The real deal.

One of the best privately owned Auto parts store on Long island.

Good guy honest good stock

One stop auto parts with a machine shop on the premises. Going there for years, they cant be beat.

Extremely knowledgeable and get parts fast. Drive past several other parts shops just to get to them and always worth it; save time and grief.

Colvins Automotive a machine shop is a Hidden Gem. Its like auto supply houses of the past. They can get you just about anyting Imports for just about any piece of equipment or vehicle relatively quick. The only place that comes close to them in their expertise in the field would be a good NAPA Automotive store.

Old school parts and tool shop they have a lot of stuff you dont even think they have good people to do business wit

Been buying parts here for 30 years,great service. always have parts I need.

Best car part Ive ever seen. The most knowledgeable car people on the island.

STAY AWAY!!!!! Told me they had a power steering return line for my car. I drove 45 mins away to figure out it was a high pressure line, then drove 45 mins back home. People here are incompetant and and dont even know there left from right STAY AWAY!!!!!

Great service from guys who know about cars, car parts and good prices.

Always the best choice to stop in at Colvin motor parts. They know it all and will always solve your problems.

Had my Toyota 4A engine head checked milled and changed the stem seals there. Came back with leaking exhaust valves, air was shooting out the exhaust port when doing leak down in my shop. I sent the head back, they could not fix the problem they created, more then that they try to blame everything on me with a very bad attitude, such as yelling to me and talk over me every time! I am never going back there, I brought me business to other place already. They are not the only shop around. Any way, this shop is a very irresponsible and need some good customer service. I dont recommend this shop personally, if you still want to try, take your own risk!

Very helpful staff, small shop bit they do paint mixing here as well

If they dont have the part, it doesnt exist ... Great staff ...
