"Leningrad" - right, but who built it and when (not 1959) ?

Yes, you are right! And another point from me.

The car has a 3.5 liter engine with 90 hp from GAZ -12 ZIM. The maximum speed of 130 km/h.

wow, this color pic is nice. Was it also difficult to get color films in the Soviet Union in the 1950s and 1960s? It was in Hungary...

 :o O my.. all the chrome parts are gone and even the elegant winscreen with the slim frame has been replaced.

But itīs there.

And it is definitly an honourous task to rebuild it and show it in its original beauty.

Go for it, all you russian billionaires!
