The Fiat Fiat should have built!!! Installing a GSXR Suzuki Motorcycle engine in the smallest Fiat Automobile proved to be more of a challenge than expected. It is now running with 104 horsepower 6 speeds and uses all origional fiat controls. The interior remained stock except for the instrument cluster. I couldn't resist.

126 Rear suspension

Dont believe it if someone tells you 126 suspension and 500 suspensions are the same. I had to remove the drum brakes and hubs from the 126 units and mout them on the 500 suspension. Also in this picture is the machined axles and the additional support for the bearing.
