About Us

In 1940, Al Lacy, Sr. had a groundbreaking idea: to buy salvaged vehicles, dismantle them, and sell affordable, high-quality parts to people who needed them. This vision became the foundation of Lacy Auto Parts Inc., one of the leading names in the auto recycling industry. Built on the principles of fairness and reliability, the Lacy name quickly became synonymous with trusted service and having the parts customers needed, when they needed them. During the 1940s, 50s, and 60s, Al Lacy’s commitment to quality and customer service propelled the business to become one of the largest vehicle recycling operations in Virginia.

By 1975, Al Lacy’s three sons—Al Jr., Ed, and David—joined the family business, carrying forward their father’s core philosophy of selling recycled parts with integrity. Through the 70s, 80s, and 90s, Lacy Auto Parts modernized its operations, integrating cutting-edge computer systems to streamline inventory and customer service. Al and Ed Lacy led efforts to consolidate stores, enhance operational efficiency, and solidify Lacy Auto Parts as a leader in the industry. Despite these advancements, their unwavering commitment to treating customers with fairness and respect remained the cornerstone of their success.

Through decades of change and innovation, Lacy Auto Parts has never strayed from its founding values: integrity, fairness, and exceptional customer service. This commitment ensures that every customer receives the best in quality and attention to detail. When you choose Lacy Auto Parts, you’re not just buying recycled parts—you’re choosing a trusted partner with a proven track record of excellence.
