It's a home-build, yes, but I don't know what parts were used.  I only want the name of the builder..

No.  Perhaps my Reply#7 wasn't clear.  It is Soviet but not by the name kwgibbs mentioned.
Serra only mentioned the Soviet-dominated Eastern European countries but not the old USSR itself so I had to answer "No"!

I can't be more specific on the "where?" part, which is really answered because it's from the old USSR, making it a Soviet home-built.
I just need the name of the builder now.

You've found the right car!
Except I have a different name for the builder (which may or may not be correct of course; I'll try to check).
Meantime this is locked for you to see if you can find the same name I have..

I'd just like to explain that "Stylnenkyy" is definitely not a name. I guess it's Стильненький, which would be something like "stylish" - probably just someone's funny comment.

It's not denial, I'm just very selective about the reality I accept.

Thanks!
As mentioned at the start it's not the name of the car I'm looking for as I don't know it, but the name of the builder.

No!  Plenty more Russian names to go, although I don't actually know his first name, just the first letter of it and his surname...
