Mustang unifies operations, announces custom seat program FOLLOWING on from its hiring of V-twin industry veteran Steve Veltri, best known for his time at Custom Chrome, Mustang has consolidated all of its various departments at its original factory in Three Rivers, Massachusetts, and announced plans to introduce a custom seat program. Commenting on the changes, Marilyn Simmons, Mustang's Marketing Director and sister of founder Al Simmons, said that "with the exception of our big-rig crew out at the rallies, our entire team is now in the same New England town we have been in since the company was founded back in 1980. "A benefit of bringing sales, marketing, R&D and manufacturing together is that we can greatly accelerate the time it takes to bring a new seat to market and introduce the first custom seat program ever offered in our 33 year history," said Simmons.
