Hey, have any of you Houston guys heard of a Colt Auto Salvage. Supposedly in the Woodlands. Specializes in Fox body stuff. I can't find anything on the net. Was referred to me by a guy that works in parts at Randall Reed Ford in Humble. According to the parts guy he is only open on Sundays? He didn't have a phone number, but drew me a map.
Any info appreciated.
Thanks

I've heard about Colt's, mostly that they were expensive. Don't know if they are still in business. What are you looking for? You can check on www.westsidemustangs.com in the forums and see if anyone on there has what you need. There are a lot of local guys with parts cars and parts laying around on there.

i used to get parts from them back in 96. when the father ran it he was pretty honest and good on prices. but once the son built his cobra clone and took over about 2-3 years ago prices went up. you do better on the boards finding something, but hey sometimes he does come across some decent stuff that might suite your needs. and yeah he's only open on sundays. no business phone from what i remember.

yeah any info on that one in cbus would be appreciated. i wouldn't mind checking it out next time i'm in that area. the ones around here have stangs that are nearly bare shells or are completely cracked up.

I've seen moss growing on most of the foxes in the half dozen or so yards near my house. Its like no one knows how to roll the windows up.
