Moskvich-related ?

[grobmotorix]

Parts of Moskvich may have been used to create this one-off vehicle.

But I would nou call it a Moskvich.

I want to hear the name of the builder.

[grobmotorix]

To the black hole?

[grobmotorix]

I thought this was quite known...

Hint: It´s been published in a hobby magazine issue.

Time to search while it rests in the black hole.

[faksta]

Well..it's probably SMZ S3D based...

[grobmotorix]

Maybe - but I have no technical information, only the builder´s name.

Can that hobby magazine be found online ?

[grobmotorix]

If so this would have been solved much earlier I guess...   

[Wendax]

So I better solve this puzzle before anybody puts the hobby magazines online. 
It is Wladimir Barinow's (or Vladimir Barinov in English transcription) Sputnik, said to be built from Moskvich and Fiat 500 parts, powered by a motorcycle engine. The picture appeared in an early 1964 magazine.

[grobmotorix]

Almosdt five years...

Now, this is TWO more points for you!

It is indeed Vladimir Barinov´s self built Sputnik car, partly made from an old Moskvich and powered by a motorcycle engine!

Do you know, which year the article was published? I did not save that detail back then.
