Has anyone heard of a supplier in Mexico that supplies Vintage Jaguar Parts? I was told his name is George and he goes by "Angel Heart Poncho" and use to play the sergent in the old Zorro movies.

But I couldn't find his contact information on the internet; does anyone one have a website, tele # and/or email address for him.

Oh, I agree, what he was "told" does not make it factual.
No attitude, which is why I ended the last post with a question as to whether we were talking about the same person.

I remember Chula Vista, but it was 45-50 years ago, nothing but agriculture then.

YEAH, it's the same person, I've been in contact with him since 2002, & he's the only Mexican that makes parts, as a matter of fact he'll make you the whole body , if you want it in parts, it's on e-bay. Chula-Vista is his mailing address, never asked him where the parts are made but last year he had a fire which destroyed most of his stuff so I'd be careful of what he sends.
As far as movies, he told me a while back which ones he was in but I never heard of them so I didn't store them in my memory banks, i.e. non-relevant.

P.S please loose the attitude, I'm not making this stuff up. Gene was TOLD by someone else, which does not make it factual.

This is interesting.
The original question was:

"Has anyone heard of a supplier in Mexico that supplies Vintage Jaguar Parts? I was told his name is George and he goes by "Angel Heart Poncho" and use to play the sergent in the old Zorro movies."

Note location: Mexico. Note credit: Sergeant Garcia in the Zorro Movies.

Then, the response:

"Not "George", and died in 1975.
I would be leery of anyone selling parts who claims to be someone he isn't, but, hey, that's just me. "

Since the guy who played Sergeant Garcia died 35 years ago.

Now, this:

"His name is Jorge, pronounced (hor-hey) for you non-Hispanic folks & yes he did have parts in movies but not "Zorro". Nice guy to speak with & he works out of Chula-Vista, CA."

Yeah, I know how to pronounce it. And Chula Vista ain't Mexico. I wonder if we're talking the same person, as the original poster has specifics on movie credits and location?

May I suggest that you check the website JAGBITS.COM...They hava a complete catalog of Jaguar Parts for all vintages both new and rebuilt. I have found that their prices are often 50% less than dealership parts, sometimes more.
