IN your garage???.  I don't even have a garage, and it was only this weekend
that my EV glider got unfrozen from the 12" glacier that had frozen the
frame to the ground (note to self, next winter, don't park any vehicles
where water will flow under them when the sun comes out).  I'm pulling the
motor and tranny out (of the back of the truck where they've been stored)
tomorrow to take them down to a machine shop to get put together.

Doesn't GE also make series DC motors... if you are looking for older used
ones you might come upon some of them.

There was just recently a post on where to buy EV parts, which listed just
about every retailer than I knew of.  Ebay is a good place.... if you know
exactly what you are looking for, and how to tell what it is even when the
seller doesn't necessarily know.
