Ford recently announced that they had produced their 10 millionth Mustang. Let that sink in for minute. Now, what’s that mean to us? Well, first, we know that vintage Mustangs are among the most popular classic cars to own, particularly because it’s easy to find one in the “entry level” price range. But, it also means that quality Mustang parts are in high demand, and will be for quite some time! And that’s where California Pony Cars<\/strong><\/a> comes in. Cal Pony Cars has been making quality Mustang parts since 1982. If you own a Mustang, any year Mustang, you need to stop by their booth on\u00a0Road 19, Spaces 27 and 29<\/a><\/strong>. We recently sat down with Ron Aguilera, Production Manager, to learn a little more about the company…<\/span><\/p>\n

TELL US ABOUT YOUR COMPANY<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

PSM:<\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0How can customers contact you?<\/span>
\nRA:<\/strong>\u00a0 Customers can come to our shop located at 710 East Francis Street in Ontario, Calif., 91761, or shop online at CalPonyCars.com<\/a><\/strong>. They can also call us at (909) 923-2357.<\/span><\/p>\n

PSM:<\/strong>\u00a0 Tell us a little bit about your company and its history.<\/span>
\nRA:<\/strong>\u00a0 California Pony Cars (CPC) was established in 1982 as an American made manufacturer of die-cast, plastic, fiberglass, and metal stamping products for the Mustang reproduction parts industry.<\/span><\/p>\n

All die-cast and plastic molded parts are made from production tooling and use only the highest grade materials, like the original parts, for a perfect fit. Other short-run manufacturers use the sand cast process where it’s impossible to reproduce the fine details that you, “the restorer”, demand in quality reproduction parts. We’re proud to make products that allow our customers the opportunity to recapture the special feelings of a time long past. Mustangs remind us of a time when the U.S. was innocent, open, and the future was unlimited!<\/span><\/p>\n

When you buy CPC products, you can be sure you are receiving the highest quality products and that you are dealing with a company whose reputation for dependability, fairness, and customer satisfaction has helped CPC to become a leader in the industry. We are very proud of our company’s reputation for quality and customer service.<\/span><\/p>\n

CPC has been a key “behind the scene” figure in the Mustang reproduction parts industry for over 35 years. We do not market our products through any other brand name nor are we affiliated in any way with any other wholesale or retail distributor. All our premium quality products can be found at your local Mustang parts and restoration stores. Ask for us by name – “CPC Premium Quality Parts”!<\/span><\/p>\n\n\t\t
