A Project born of Passion

We are proud to present this venture comprising some of the most significant figures of the Ex-Works

FSM-OBR Team & two enthusiasts. Our aim is to recreate these Works cars and give enthusiasts like

us the opportunity to enjoy them .

The FSM-OBR Works Team

1974 marked the beginning of the FSM-OBR Works team. Engineer Zbigniew Klimeski as Team Manager

& Jozef Zemanek as Chief Mechanic lead a team of the best specialist in each field. They started to develop

the 126 for Rallying & Racing . The results where spectacular. The cars evolved into all out Race & Rally Winners. Over a period of 14 years they won every National Championship and stared in many international events.  

FSM-OBR Works Team timescale

126 Group 2  From ~ 1978 till 1983

Why the 126 Group 2

Unquestionably the most elaborate of the FSM-OBR Works developed cars. Our project has chosen to recreate the 126 Group 2 Works rally cars in every technical and esthetic detail.
