Detailed listing

Mustangs, Etc.

Van Nuys, CA · Greater Los Angeles · Est. 1976

Family-owned — founded by Arnold Marks, now run by his son Garrett

Founded in 1976 by Arnold Marks and now run by his son Garrett, Mustangs, Etc. is one of the longest-running classic-Ford specialists in greater LA — and the kind of shop where parts depth is the real differentiator. They keep what they call one of the largest inventories of NOS, reconditioned, and reproduction Mustang and Ford parts anywhere, which on a classic Ford is the difference between waiting months on a backordered trim piece and having it pulled off a shelf. Mechanical work and restoration both happen in-house.

Best suited for

A correct, parts-available classic Ford or Mustang build (early-'70s and earlier). A Mustang-specific specialist — not a restomod or European-marque shop.
