I just thought it was cool and I sold my 3 old VWs when I left the US. I just wanted to buy something fun here that I could not get in the US.

In this case you are familiar with the old, simple technologies, so the 126 cannot be a big surprise Your only problem can be the quality of spare parts.

There aren't too much suppliers left on the market. The big Hungarian car parts networks sell nearly northing nowadays for old East European cars. Only a few small suppliers left who purchase parts directly from Poland. Our primary partner is http://www.motopol.hu/ (at this moment their webshop seems to be down, it doesn't show any part, probably this'll be fixed soon). But it's getting harder day by day, as you might now, the production of 126 was stopped in 2000, so more and more parts not available in original, and just low quality aftermarket parts are available - if any.

Some of them are Italian parts, but it's quite rare. In Italy the 126 was just produced in the 70's, and later the Polish version was sold there with a different brand. The water-cooled version (BIS) and the last 10 years model (EL and ELX) was produced with the brand Fiat (without "Polski" ) but only in Poland - as it is normal nowadays at each brands On the other hand, if you buy from West Europe, it will be much more expensive than from Ploand, because there this model was always rare.

To reach higher speed you definitely have to swap engine and gearbox The owner of Motopol is registered on this forum too, his name is Gáspáry László. I think you can agree with him to send spare parts to the US, the shipping cost will be the same as from Germany. When will you travel back?

I think he wanted to say that you should use seats from similar types of vehicles: like Fiat 126 BIS or 127. As - I suppose - he thinks they may give more comfort and it should not be such a big issue to apply them.
Personally I'm quite new to this group so I don't know. Some say the old Suzuki Swift seats can also be easily modified to fit. Of course they are a lot better in comfort and in safety than the original ones.

If you look for seats that you don't need to modify to apply you'd better use original Polski Fiat 126 or 126 BIS seats. Another option to use Polski Fiat 126 "sport seats" that you can find sometimes among the ads. (Now there is a blue pair of it) Or you can buy any kind of front seats that is not too wide to apply in the car, but than you have to work on the rails by yourself. I hope I could help.
Előzmény: Hammy @ 2010.11.29. 21:54:02
I have a pair of them. If you're interested in it write me a mail to kornispeti@gmail.com If you come to our next meeting in december in Budapest, I can give it to you then.

And what about welding the old one? Or does it looks too worn?
Factory seats are not a rarity, therey can be often found at classifications section of this page. I'll keep my eye open and send a PM if I see one.
Also: did you call the previous owner of your car? AFAIK Firefighter Peti has a large stock of 126 parts... There must be an old seat somewhere in his garage

Thanks, I looked at the blue ones already but I don't really want the sport seats. What kind do you have?
Előzmény: jmos @ 2010.11.29. 22:15:29
The old one could be welded and easily repaired but I have the sport seats and I really would like to replace them with the stock low back seats. I looked all through Peter's parts when I bought the car, he didn't have any spare seats but he does have the stock exhaust that I'd like to get from him.
Anyone interested in a trade? Sport seats for Factory low backs... The drivers seat frame has cracked but could be welded and the passenger seat is in great working condition.

Hello
Thought i'd liven up this thread and introduce myself I'm a member of the club126.co.uk forum for 3 years now and decided to pop over here to have a look. I also have a few bits to sell and thought i'd list them here as i'd have a better chance of selling them locally. I have a green '86 FSM 126p 650E that i restored and am a proud user of it. It's been on the road since last November after receiving its roadworthy. It was off the road for 2 years. Since then i've put about 4000km's into it without any major problems (smaller ones arose but never made me come to a standstill). I tried slalom racing with it but unfortunately flipped the car so i had to repair bodypanels (again). Apart from that it's a cool little car Since i'm moving i'll have to leave the car with my parents. I'll post pictures of it later on and hope that i'll be able to buy another one in the future (and of course, tune it )
All the best GTMaster
