All The Parts Your Car Will Ever Need!

RockAuto just completed a large catalog update of several major manufacturers including Dorman, Merit Exhaust, and Apsco power steering components.

Dorman is a leading manufacturer of OEM or better replacement parts, many of which were once only available at a dealership parts counter. Try finding your part at RockAuto before spending too much money at a dealership.

Merit is known for quality exhaust and emission products that fit and function just like the original parts. Along with Walker Exhaust, we now have more complete coverage for replacement or repair of your exhaust.

APSCO specializes in remanufactured steering gears, rack and pinion units, and power steering pumps...OEM quality at a great price!

Answers to Car Care Awareness Quiz 1. False. Upgrading fuel generally is an expensive and unsatisfactory remedy for a "pinging" engine. A better investment would be a diagnostic checkup by an experienced technician. 2. True. The engine cooling system cools the automatic transmission. When it overheats, so does the transmission. 3. False. Centrifugal force causes one ounce of weight to become the equivalent of twelve pounds at 60 mph, causing damage to the tire and suspension parts. 4. False. The oxygen sensor is part of the emissions control system. 5. True. A defective seal is the most common cause of transmission fluid leakage.

Hi,

Thank you for featuring my 1970 Cuda in the July 2005 RockAuto newsletter. I have since sold the Cuda and bought a 1967 Satellite that I'm already lining up RockAuto parts for it!

It's a convertible with a 383 automatic and a 3.23 Sure-Grip rear axle. The Satellite is very clean and still has the original drivetrain, top, carpet, rear seat covers, fender tag and Certicard. It has been repainted to the very rare original Turbine Bronze.

According to research that's been done, it's one of 237 1967 Satellite convertibles left.

Thanks,
Russ in PA
