hi guys and gals

new to the hole 126 life but i must say im looking forward to helping the little beast back onto the road.

just wondered if all the talk of 500's means that the parts can be used for both cars????

thanks all

Welcome to the forum Flame!

yes alot of parts are interchangable with slight modification in some instances, as you are probably well aware 500 enthusiasts are understandably partial to the quicker 600cc/650cc 126 engine.

thinking of buying a 126 or 500 ?

look forward to reading more of your posts

regards

Chris

thanks guys,

i have 2 x 126 bis one is a F-reg in the pastel blue colourand the other a G i think its in metalic green havent collected that one yet.

but they are to make one good car, the box has gone in one of them i have no first gear and it shudders funny.

but im looking forward to the fix.

will be joing the club as well so all the help i get is really helpful, do the body parts like flared arches from the 500 fit the 126???

take care (names Gary by the way)

your telling me, i only had to see a friends and my brain went into over load, just thinking what could be done with such a little car and how light it is.
i have a lot of ideas and with two cars i was planning on having one really classic and one a little different.

who knows how long it will be untill i find another that i just have to have.
