What do I do
« on: May 08, 2018, 08:22:45 PM »
Long time no see to everyone on here,

Story today I still have my 126(s) and my 500 but moving house has stalled everything,

Saw this 126 on eBay and had to have it, love to know the story of this car as it has once had a loving owner, sadly as you might have seen the last owner has destroyed it by taking a hacksaw to the roof, it is not safe to be on the road for that reason not the mot failures, the body is really in good condition and the engine is really strong

Is there anything I can do to save this car from the scrap man, I don't want to scrap it but it's going that way at the moment  :cry:

fiats forever

Have you thought about putting a new roof on from a donor car or even a proper sunroof roof? It's pricey to do but what else are you going to spend cash on!  ;)

 ;D good point, I have thought of chopping the roof off all together but the 126 is what it is by the shape of the roof and back window, would be cool to have a folding top on it :P
