It's a valid question as I believe the aircooled (non BIS) was still being built in Poland right through to the end of the 126's production life and they use very different exhaust systems.

Best option if you're really struggling is take it to an exhaust specialist, if they can't source something they should be able to fabricate something for a reasonable price.

Not many Bis in Poland.

Have you tried your local exhaust centre?

Maybe have one fabricated?

Or find a care being broken.

Hello. Axel Gerstl (http://webshop.fiat500126.com), Ritz Handels GmbH (http://www.fiatclassic.com) and Ricambio sell them. Check out the Fiat 126 Links and Reputable Companies sections as well. Yes, you can always get one fabricated at about £250. It will look lovely but it might be a bit on the noisy side, so if you choose the fabrication route, ensure that they can do one that is relatively quiet.

think i have sourced one just a thousand more jobs to do. It seems through reading things on this site i am gonna spend more time fixing the car than driving it so it best be fun to drive, as i haven't had a chance to run it yet. I must say i am looking forward to my first drive though i really would prefere an air cooled 126  [-/
