French bottom bracket?
So i got a 71 Peugeot that had some rust damage. I was able to save some of the old part off it but the bottom bracket and cranks where done for. Anyone know where i might be able to pick a French bottom bracket + cranks for a decent price? Thanks in advance.

Define decent price. Your two choices are ebay or Velo Orange. If I were you, I would be digging around that Co-op you have in your sig line. Depending what model Pug you have, the cost of the new bb and crank could exceed the value of the bike.

I have looked around in my co-op, and the only one that will work in unfortunately not for parts... so I am kind of out of luck there, time to start looking around, thanks for the ideas!
