So, I finally got myself an early air cooled 126 to restore. Some of you may know it as “OPDâ€..
It’s a 1976 126 in maroon. It needs a fair few bits doing to get it road legal and then I plan to do much more to get it looking good and runing nice too.
What it needs;-
• Both sills, inner and outer
• Both front inner arches
• Complete floor pan
• Seat runner support (under floor)
• Complete brakes rebuild. Master cylinder and all 4 cylinders, pads and drums.
What I’m doing for good measure..
• Engine rebuild
• Gearbox rebuild
• New Lights
• Straighten front bumper and get re chromed
• New gearbox and engine mountings
• Possibly new leaf spring mount rubbers
• Complete new ignition system
• Whatever else I can think of whilst doing all of this.
I have bought lots of new tools for the occasion and let the fun begin!!!
Let me know if there is anything key I should be looking fo!
