The Motilal Banarsidass translation of Garuda Purana by J.L. Shastri is an unabridged translation and can be downloaded using the link below or from this answer.
Garuda Purana English - Motilal - 3 Volumes in 1 (PDF, 120 MB)
1184 pages
Vol. 1 begins at page # 1
Vol. 2 begins at page # 429
Vol. 3 begins at page # 839
I was also able to find a free copy of an abridged English translation of Garuda Purana by M.N. Dutt (Manmatha Nath Dutt) at two different places:
Google Books++: https://play.google.com/store/books/details?id=0Fwxjf4IM78C
Archive.org: https://archive.org/details/garudapuranam00duttgoog
Proofread HTML: http://www.wisdomlib.org/hinduism/book/the-garuda-purana-dutt
If you prefer PDF file, it's available via this direct link (32 MB).
++ One advantage with the Google Books format is that it's searchable!

2I think M.N. Dutt's translation is an abridged version. The Motilal Banarsidass translation is a verse-by-verse translation, and I think it's much better. Commented Mar 13, 2016 at 1:46

Oh ok, I tried clicking on those links in the other answer earlier and none of them seem to work. The page just times out. Maybe we should upload them to archive.org. Commented Mar 13, 2016 at 2:09

Yeah, unfortunately the DSpace site is often down. The next time it's up I can download all three volumes and upload them to Google Drive. Commented Mar 13, 2016 at 3:10
