best luck with the pix. Will you be posting any for us? 
Filmforclassics.com, say they can process 126 film. But I'd careful with 
them, their order page has nothing on it.

I use the F16 rule for photos from my Nettar. And let the processors do 
their bit. I suspect that this'd be  bit harder with a Quickmatic.

Some of the selenium meters in my cameras still work. Olympus seem to 
produce longer lasting selenium meters. I haven't tested them with film. 
And my one link with replacement selenium has vanished. It was @ 
http://www.goldmine-elec.com/
