G'day Kenny,

There are a few of us on here from Oz (Phreak97 and GSXR126 are some of the most active). 

The Niki is indeed a FIAT 126p.  Most parts are readily obtainable over the net (and usually quite cheap), even though they seem next to impossible to get when you try locally.

This forum will help a great deal, lots of knowledge by those that belong to it and by becoming a subscriber, will also give you access to electronic versions of workshop manuals which you may want to consider.

Welcome Kenny,

Good move staying tuned as you'll find a wealth of knowledge on the forum. Judging by the plates you're in Victoria and you"ll find quite a few Fiat specialists down there.

Hope you enjoy your new Fiat as much as i do.

Happy 650cc motoring,

Dan

Hi Kenny looks like a good 'un , welcome to you and your rare antipodean motor. probably much rarer due to the link found below.  :cry:

Details of the bits that will swap from a Fiat 126 (NIKI) to a 500, found on the internet, courtesy of Club Fiat 500 South Austrailia.
