Every time I take my 66 here the quality of work is exceptional and they don't try to make you pay for services you don't need! I was told by a brake shop my brake booster was failing and I needed an entire new braking system that would cost $4000...The folks at Mustang Etc made the adjustments that needed to be made for a fraction of the price! Thank you Mustang Etc for being a stand up company! read more

Three Strikes they are out with work on my 68 Shelby GT500KR! Had them do a rear main seal last year, still leaks. My 428 engine is apart for rebuild at JBA Speed Shop, San Diego. John (FE Engine Pro at JBA) said seal in backwards. Other two strikes; Has Manny's Mechanic put in and time my Pertronics distributor. Car left shop missing, Manny said might need spark plugs. At my home garage, found one spark plug lead not plugged into dist cap nipple, arcing, just lying hidden on rubber boot. Then to top it off, distributor clamp bolt left loose. I shall have my work done elsewhere from now on! read more

I've known about Mustangs, Etc since I was in HS and always wanted to have a Mustang and have it serviced here. Now that I have my 1968, the guys here have been really awesome. I've had countless things repaired and replaced to my specifications. I'm also working on a secondary Mustang that is having extensive work done so I can take it to the track - replacing a lot of worn original pieces and upgrading the engine and suspension. Having experienced some "less than stellar" shops, I'm impressed with the attention to detail and factory specs these guys keep in mind when working on cars. They constantly reference original Ford specs and settings. And instead of haphazardly charging for things like many places do, they'll provide an itemized estimate for what's critical. A huge perk is that they have an expansive new old stock parts department, along with most parts you'd need for classic Fords. Some parts are custom made there and can only be found in their parts dept. Highly recommended!! read more

Where do I begin. This is the best classic car mustang shop ever. From the staff on the parts side to the staff on the auto repair side. The quality of service and work is beyond professional and impeccable. Knowledgeable on everything you need to know on your classic Mustang, or ford falcon. These guys and gals make me feel so welcome everytime I'm in there either buying a part to upgrade my 1964 1/2 U code mustang or having them install something on the car that is beyond my reach. If you want an experience of just feeling good about your purchase and or repair this is the pace to goto. Now mind you when a shop/business like this is that good you're gonna have to make an appointment for the repairs and it's well worth the wait. So take it from me this is the place you want to buy all your mustang and falcon parts!!! There's no other place like it!! Lifetime customer!!!! read more

There is not enough internet data space to hold my glowing thoughts, feelings and review for Christine and Mustangs Etc. I took a stab at classic car ownership as it dawned as a new passion and anyone who has done that not growing up in the world knows it's an overwhelming and complicated hobby. But with resources like Mustangs Etc., it's actually become a manageable and exciting reality. I bought a 1966 notchback off craigslist and turns out, well, you guessed it -- I was ripped off. The engine was different than advertised, parts were held together with paperclips and gum. But Christine not only assured me that this happens all the time but that she, Manny and the hardworking people at M.E. would help me in my journey to restoring the car. Hardship and challenges is, after all, what classic car ownership is all about. Not only did my car restoration come out beautifully (and insanely timely!) Christine made the whole process WAY less scary than it really seems it should be. She held my hand financially, was clear about every step of the process and NEVER ONCE pushed back if I expressed trepidation or second guessing. It was always my choice to proceed. If you're looking for expertise, accessibility, quality work and above all PASSIONATE CARE for your vehicle, look no further. I almost regret writing this review because I don't want Christine to get busier--she's avail for me 24/7. Not only have I finally gotten that go-to "mustang guy (girl)" now, I've gotten a friend. M.E. feels like family. Which is what classic car ownership/maintenance should require. Peter read more

I picked up my 1972 Ford 100 Custom a couple weeks ago and have been so pleased with the completed work. It's driving much better and I feel comfortable knowing that it was treated well while they had it at Mustangs Etc. The team there is top tier, they were helpful answering all my questions and were able to offer advice when needed. This is the oldest vehicle I've owned so far and I'm very happy to know I have a local shop who has the knowledge and skills to work on such a fun truck. Shout out to Christine and Manny for being so cool! I'll definitely be bringing it here when it needs more work! read more

The folks at Mustangs Etc definitely know classic mustangs. Extremely knowledgeable - and several of the staff even own and have restored their classic coupes and fast backs. As a new owner of a vehicle, they have been very helpful in identifying and fixing repair issues and making recommendations to get the car in tip top shape. And Christine even provided me a ton of help and support during the purchase process when I was evaluating vehicle options. read more

Great customer service at a reasonable price. Technicians have great knowledge and provide great quality service. Everything you need for your Mustang is available at great prices. A must to visit them for all your classic Mustang needs. read more

I had a mishap and was in need of a convertible top curtain with non-folding glass window for my 1972 Mustang. I called Christine an hour before they closed as she said bring in my car and I was able to get it there in time and pick it up two days later. She keep me updated and I was very pleased with the work and I would recommend any classic Mustang or Ford owner to check out the shop and parts department a couple blocks away. There are not many local places that will work on older cars or have parts in stock and mechanics that are able to work on them. read more

At the start of my visit Ben from the parts department received me with kindness and was very welcoming. I want to personally give a shout out to Manuel from there service department . I had only communicated through Yelp messenger first before meeting him in person. Manuel was very humble and happy to answer any of my questions. This guy didn't make me feel embarrassed of my little knowledge I had about my car. Manuel thanks for all the advice and knowledge you share. You answer a lot of my questions. I can tell everyone at this shop loves their trade. A+ Great experience! Will return! From ; 66 Black Stang read more

Mustangs Etc Service Center - "66 Black Stang" - Auto Repair Near Me - Van Nuys, California

The good; Took in a recently purchased '66 ford mustang to be inspected and quoted. Initially started with a tour of facility and the staff seems very knowledgeable that's for a fact. 2 stars for the initial impression and a word doc with some notes. The Bad: 2 week inspection and quote came back 4 weeks later grossly overestimated. Mostly to due to an extremely high hourly rate on labor costs. Happy to pay for good service, this just felt like a F U price. After choosing to not move forward, my car was returned with a drained battery and not starting. Extremely frustrating dropping off a car that is running well, and returned 2 weeks late in a worst condition. Would not recommend and would not be going back. read more

Mustang Etc! Fantastic! I wish I new about them 30 years ago the savings would of been a life and love changer for me and my 1963 Baby Blue Falcon Sprint Convertible!! Thank you Bruce and the team at Mustang Etc! The open road is mine again even if I can only listen to rock & roll and the sound of 8 cylinders in the background!! read more

These guys were awesome, especially since I went here after the Vista ford debacle with their burnout and useless service advisors. Trunk wouldn't open and had my very important computer in there and needed it for work, and was prepared to drill the trunk when I went into their service dept. and the owner was sitting down. This place works on old Mustangs and not new ones, but that didn't stop him from calling around for me to other dealerships and ultimately coming out and pulling up and down on the trunk while I tried to open with the back seat key and VOILA! It opened. This is how people in the service business are supposed to be. Would give him a ton of business but I don't own an old Mustang. To those of you who do, don't go anywhere else. read more

Great shop that does fantastic work. They know it all when it comes to parts for Mustangs. Now that Bo is closed this is the only place for Classic Mustangs P.S. sometimes they have hippies hanging out there from the 60's but they don't smell too bad. read more

If you have a classic Mustang, this is your only and best option. Bruce and his team transformed my '69 Mach 1 into a smooth, clean and reliable machine. I had Mustangs Etc. perform a Shelby Drop (total performance suspension/handling package), fix or upgrade every area of my engine/transmission/brakes, fix my weather-stripping/windows and a ton of other minor repairs. I even had them add a chin spoiler to get the look closer to where I want it. The initial inspection was very thorough. After reviewing what the team found to be in need of repair, Bruce sat with me for an hour at the shop; explaining the list and showing me examples of other Mustangs with similar features/upgrades. Imagine being in a car museum of the coolest cars, and the tour guide is showing you features your own car can have in the future. That's what working with Mustangs, Etc. is like. I'll be using Mustangs Etc. for all my '69 Mach 1 needs. I love this car, and am very careful about who works on it. Bruce and his team earned my trust. read more

Great service! They have hard to find/ rare parts. Drove 30 min and had parts ready to go.

I am over the moon happy with my repairs now my car drives better than it has ever in my ownership. I only wish this pandemic would disappear as fast as my car problems so we all can go for a ride in our favorite classic cars! Stay safe and well! Thank you Bruce you and your team!!! RC read more

BRING YOUR CLASSIC MUSTANG HERE! This place is by far the best shop I have ever taken my 1970 boss mustang. The mechanics here are super knowledgeable about these type of cars and they're work is very professional. Their prices are a bit high but trust me it's more than worth it. Don't waste your money on cheap work with others who might not do a good job in the end which will make you spend more money in the long run. These guys are pros and not only do they do an amazing job but they're also very neat. I STRONGLY RECOMMEND THIS PLACE. read more

I like to support the smaller local Businesses rather then buying on ebay. Mustangs etc. will beat most online prices anyhow, they are very friendly and helpful and have almost everything in Stock... Think twice before your buy online. read more

1964 Falcon with a bunch of deferred issues. Drives like an actual car now instead of a broken wheelbarrow. Will definitely be back...I don't think there's anyplace else that can deliver the level of service that these guys can. read more

What a great place! I bought my first Mustang, a 1965 Convertible a few months ago not really knowing what to look for. The team at Mustangs etc helped me decide what upgrades to get done. They have been fair & honest with every visit. Alan over at parts has been great & Bruce at service is an outstanding gentleman. He keeps me informed, gets pre-approval for costs & when it comes to collecting the car, everything is done at the highest standard with a fair price. My hat off to the whole team, they will be my only service & parts provider while I own a Mustang. Thanks Guys!!! Henry read more

I took my '66 Sunbeam there which has a Ford suspension front and rear. Suspension was weak with front tires rubbing on the fender wells. Mustangs, etc. made recommendations on replacing the shocks with a specific brand. They also modified my rear end to make for a better ride. They also found some minor repairs that needed to be made. I was very happy with their workmanship and professional attitude. Mike, the Service Manager, communicated with me during the process via email and phone to let me know what replacements parts were needed and the costs. When I would stop in to see the progress, Gil, the mechanic doing the work on my car, provided me with a progress report as well. They also provided quotes for minor repairs they found which I had them do. When all was said and done, their price quote was exactly what I paid and the suspension is 100% better. I will go back to them for work on my other cars when necessary. read more
