In Memory of Franco – A New Chapter for Our Shop

We are deeply saddened to share that Franco passed away on September 12 2025. He was the heart and soul of our shop for many years, and his dedication, hard work, and kindness touched countless customers and friends. Franco built more than just a business — he built a family and a reputation for honesty, quality, and care that will never be forgotten.

The shop is now operating under a new name: Prospect Foreign Auto and is owned & operated by Marco Caruso, Franco’s long-time friend & shop foreman, who is committed to continuing the high standards and traditions Franco established.

We are happy to share that Eileen remains in the office, and Stephen, our long-time mechanic, is still in the shop, providing the same trusted service our customers have relied on for the last 40 years.

✅ We are fully open for all auto repairs.
⚠️ Emissions testing will be available in a few months as new equipment is being installed. (Possibly By Feb Of 2026)

New Phone Number: 860-232-6132
New Email – Prospectforeignauto@gmail.com

Thank you for your continued support, trust, and patience during this time. We are honored to carry on Franco’s legacy.
