Classic Mustangs of Houston did a nice job on many parts of my 69 Fastback. Swapped out my C6 tranny for a Tremec TKO 600, replaced my shock towers, swapped out my motor, etc., etc.

Great to see some fellow hobbiest in HOUSTON.

I’d love to meet some fellow mustang guys here in town.

Any good machine shop in El Paso TX or nearby area to rebuild my tired 289, 4V.???
Nothing wild or exotic, just fresh reliable street performance reliability with good internals.

Thank you.

Good luck! I have been looking for one for a year. Looks like they all left Austin. I have heard good things about Hill Country Performance and Machine which is out of Austin but not too bad.

When I was a porter for German Auto Center we used Precision Engine Service off Cameron Rd. Working on German cars I never brought anything Ford to them, but Dennis seemed to do good work.

Anything in San Antonio? Just looking for basic engine, transmission and diff tune ups, refresh on all the fluids and check the brakes. Some of this I may do on my own.

Cant tell you where to go in SA, but I can who NOT to go to in SA. Stay away from a CROOK named ED CAMPA he's over there off of Basse road and San Pedro area. He'll try to pick your pockets right in front of you! I forgot the name of the shop but its across from a Fire Station in a row of auto shops.

I'm looking for a shop in the North Texas area:

I'm considering the following and would love to hear any experiences with these shops (or others):

North Texas Customs -
Wilson Auto Repair -
Mid-Cities Mustang -
Robinson Restorations & Service -
Midlife Classics -

Labor rates vary from $110 to $150 per hour some are far more willing to work with customer supplied parts without markup than others
