Very rare colour photo -

pnegyesi · October 10, 2013, 03:46:43 PM

wow, this color pic is nice. Was it also difficult to get color films in the Soviet Union in the 1950s and 1960s? It was in Hungary...

Can't recall seeing these old Russian cars in such good quality!

What a tragedy.
At least it has survived..
Now there's a time- (and money-..) consuming project for you Dmitri..!

Good idea, thanks..

grobmotorix · January 06, 2014, 03:19:25 PM

O my.. all the chrome parts are gone and even the elegant winscreen with the slim frame has been replaced.

But it´s there.

And it is definitly an honourous task to rebuild it and show it in its original beauty.

Go for it, all you russian billionaires!

Arunas · March 16, 2014, 04:31:20 PM

For you!

A period video showing this beauty in motion!!
