Topic: Solved: GAZ M415 Thorax

[Bill Murray]

One point for the maker and the model.

[Bill Murray]

As above.
What and roughly when for one point.

[Zerk]

Is it a 1935 Hudson Terraplane Pickup Truck?

[Bill Murray]

A very good response but sadly, it is not a Hudson-Terraplane.

GAZ pick up truck?

[RayTheRat]

Copy of a 1936 Ford truck, made in Russia, possibly by GAZ

is a Gaz M 415 but I think the solution is half a point for me, Del78 and Ray 

[Bill Murray]

Well, I had to do it in two steps so I still don't have it figured out how to do it correctly.
Yes, GAZ M-415.
Produced 1939-1941 and based on the GAZ M which was derived in large part from the 1934 model Ford.

This one is being used by the Soviet military on a parade I believe in Moscow.

I apologize profusely to Del78 and Ray, I had posted a response when it was still in the Experts section
encouraging them to go further with the model number but the post did not go through.
I am really beginning to think this Forum doesn't like me very much as I keep getting things
lost.

I have given you the point, Thorax and I will be PMing the Boss to see if I can split a point with the
other two guys.

Think he's joking Bill!
No half points possible, but you can give a whole one to whoever you think deserves it.  There's no limit - it's your puzzle so your decision!

[Otto Puzzell]

That was thoughtful of GAZ to name a truck after an AutoPuzzler from the then-future.

That's right!
