Steve,

Sorry it has taken me so long to send a reply to your Ithaca question. I hope it wasn't a serious problem that triggered your question. Here's some places to try:

  • AJ Foreign Car Service - I've never taken any of my cars to them because they used to have a less than sterling reputation, but I've seen in recent ads that they are under new ownership. They used to service Peugeots regularly. A former owner was the brother of the owner of Garage De France - the now long gone Peugeot dealer - and I believe one or more of the Peugeot mechanics may have moved to AJ when GdeF closed.
  • Triphammer Mobil - maybe not for engine rebuilds, but they seem to be capable; sometimes hard to get appointments there.
  • Somewhere in Freeville, I think, is a AAA garage that hauled my 87 to Morris Auto Service in Rochester 5 or 6 years ago for an alternator replacement. The driver said that they had a customer with a Peugeot that they took care of. The name of the garage may be Whyte's. Hope this helps,

Steve
