I couldn't determine the origin of Tu-126 airframes. I reviewed all sources i could find. Some say they were existing Tu-114 that were converted to flying radars after their withdrawal from Aeroflot. Others, equally credible, sources state they were newly built airframes. Most make no clear statement. Couldn't find serial numbers to clarify it. Even Rzjet is unclear. The conversion hypothesis seems to make more sense, as Tu-126's were introduced around the time Tu-114's were withdrawed from civilian service, but there is no way to be sure.
