What's this, from where and when, and based on what?  For 1 point.

Has the radiator grille been photoshopped out?

No - that would be bending the rules!
I deleted the number plate (which you can see if you look carefully).
Here's another picture with the number plate still there but the registration obliterated:

Don't recognise the name, but I can't categorically say "No".
If you could point me to some proof of that I could be convinced you're right!

No, I don't have a name.
The only info I have that I'm still missing is when it was built and roughly where; that would be enough to secure the point now.
However, as you know you may not reply as I told you already the 'site where I got the picture from!

What I have got is a picture of the puzzle car during construction by the father of the lad pictured below:

Not sure about Ukraine (I've accepted Russia already as where it was built..) but 1965 is not correct.

Wrong way!
Although I must say the date it's been given doesn't look likely to me (it looks much earlier), but the website is authoritative..

 The works were performed over week-ends and in the evenings of the week-days and lasted for 5 years from the first sketch to the first driving (1971).

Yes!
Sorry I haven't answered this before but it hadn't got on the of the little "NEW" icons on it so I hadn't notice it.
So you've solved both this and its sister puzzle NEH 2064.
Well done!

This car is a repost, and for this reason, this puzzle will stay in Expert Section
