Title: Polish winch car "TUR sw4"
Post by: grobmotorix on November 09, 2014, 01:14:29 PM
I do not know what this is, so I place it here instantly.

The file name tells you all the fact I have.

Can you identify this one and proof your guess?

Is this some 1960's parade at Poland?

Yes - must be a parade in the 60´s or 70s in Poland.

But that´s all I know.

O.K., you´ve found the photo.

But we still do not know any technical details, a make or even a name.

It is LOCKED for you now - let´s see if you will find out more...

Possibly a modified Warszawa FSO M 20, but it's just a guess..

There are some confusions here. The picture was NOT taken in Russia. It was taken in Warsaw, Ul. Malrszalkowska on 1 May, 1961
" Winch TUR-1 glider pulling a trailer with a glider SZD-22B Mucha Standard with folded wings (Reg. No. SP-2155) " - says the caption in Polish

As for the car: unknown chassis, homemade body. Some say based on a Warszawa, but there's no confirmation.

The vehicle was done at Zakłady Sprzętu Lotnictwa Sportowego Nr 3. in Poznan. I don't want to link the Youtube video where they introduce the restored vehicle.

I don't know what remains to call this one "solved," but I will send you a link to the video mentioned above (with English subtitles). The video details the various components used, including the 4,680cc "S-47" type motor which the video says was originally built for use in a Star 660 truck. Here are a couple of still images from the video:
