> 45 years of Fiat 126 – An entry by Mark Lacher, Germany |

I drive a Fiat 126 because... „Well, why should anyone drive a Fiat 126? My Fiat 126 was built in 74 and it is painted in meadow green. It was reborn in 2008 when its restoration was finished after 5 years work. I purchased it in an Ebay auction. It was a completely devastated first-series car where the engine lay on the passenger side. After sandblasting, the outer and inner wings, the floor panel and the pedal kick panel as well as the front sill were replaced. The car was painted in the original tone and with clear paint, then the body cavities were sealed with Mike Sander’s rust prevention product. The seats were covered with Alcantara and leatherette. The upholstery seams were duplicated from the old seat covers. In addition, we added a new inside roof lining. A Blaupunkt radio, Frankfurt model, and a mono speaker were mounted into a beautiful IB radio housing. A Hirschmann antenna fitted to the A pillar ensures perfect reception. “ ... and why do you drive a Fiat 126? Send us your personal reasons under the heading “I drive a Fiat 126 because…” to our e-mail address info@fiat500126.com. By end of 2017, in about 2 – 3 sentences, relate to us the personal experience – whether good or bad – that you had with the Fiat 126, praise it for whatever reasons you feel it to be praiseworthy, or simply tell us what you like most about it!
