Buy a floor for £15 then pay the £15 delivery. Welding about £30 max in Poland.
Really not a big job over there.

Hi dajwid, priced a complete floor on allegro 200pln but no postage and its in wloclaw, im near warsaw! others ive seen are not with strutts under floor and cost 190pln postage extra. welders i found so far dont want to touch 126's! which is why im thinking of fiberglassing the floor instead and was wondering if its viable safe etc? regards David

Hi David,
Don't know what you would get away with in Poland but in the U.K. it wouldn't pass the MOT with glass fibre filling the holes in the floor, Its just not Safe as its part of the strength of the monocoque body and chassis. For your own safety Do what Dajwid mentioned above :thumbup

I wouldn't do it personally.
Try this guy:-
speaks English too, lives in Warsaw and is 126 mad :-)

...also, trying to find a shop that sells (podloga)/floor panels! Considering Poland produced 3.1 million 126's and the floor is a common fault on these cars it unbelievably hard to find a supplier near me! :(
