Well done, kwgibbs. One point for you..
Virus (Вирус) - Soviet self-made car, built by A.P. Samoilov (A.П. Самойлов) in 1989.
P.S. Thanks, Paul, for your large photo, I hadn't seen it before..

You'll be interested in a back view then. Not so cool like the front but a quite remarkable work for a selfbuilt car!
No doubt inspired by the Bertone Alfa Carabo?

The car "Virus" and the plane "UT-2" (by A.I. Volkov) were demonstrated at the exhibition in Volgograd. They have nothing in common ..

Where did you take these pictures? :D
Does the word "Virus" have the same meaning in Russian as it does in English? If so, that seems like a very strange name to give a car. Sorta like "The Brain Cancer Special."

Here it was!
I took these pics from a very known forum, one that I'm sure you know and they were in the latest pages (that's why I think you miss them).

This car has nothing to do with Samojlov.
It was made by Evgenij Titsev (Евгений Тицев) and was named "Samo-gonka" (Само-гонка) meaning something like "self-made-race-car". The car also has a nickname Lambozhiga (like Lamborghini-Zhiguli 8) 8) 8))
