For a point:

- Which company (I don't know myself!) modified this Lada Niva.
- When and where this picture was taken?

Never heard about it. Who did this modification?
Can you identify the place and year?

It is Patrick Giraud, after a contest launch by Poch to relook the Niva.

Must be "Salon de l'automobile" 87 (Paris)

There was no Salon de l'automobile in 1987.

Beautiful picture, grob! Thanks!

I think we can finally close this case.

1 deserved point goes to Julien for doing most of the job and 1 point - to grob who has just finished it.

Do you have it without the sepia look?

Many internet sources have it in gray tones. Just use the forbidden tool....

I just do a quick edit (I use Corel Paint Shop Pro) and set the palette to monochrome.  I'm not much of a fan of sepia prints.  When I had some relatives visiting recently, I made prints for them of photos I'd scanned of our "ancestors" and was about to print one in 11x14 format (my preference for print size) and a cousin asked what it would look like in sepia-tone.  I did a little editing of the color palette and added sepia...they all preferred a medium-high contrast monochrome.  I didn't tell 'em that the sepia reminded me of a "Grob" photo.   ;D  Whenever I see sepia toning, I think of your puzzle photos.
