Here we go:
I cannot tell anything better than I've already written about it:
Oror is a name of car that Armenian amateur enthusiast of automobiles Genrich Matevosian created at around 1981. This name which means “seagull” in Armenian was chosen apparently not accidentaly since the gull-wing doors is the most distinctive feature of the car. Oror uses a classic scheme - VAZ 2101 parts and coupe (2+2) bodywork. Retractable headlights prompt that the car was created with aerodynamics being a priority. The fact that must be mentioned while talking about this car is that it was built not in a garage that many would think but on a 9th floor balcony!! When asked how did he do this, Matevosian answered: “How did I do it? I don’t know… Just built it. But to take it down from a balcony I needed a 5-ton crane. Balcony was quite good for me as a constructor. 179cm width, 580cm length. When I have finished the assembly of the car, I’ve had some 40cm for test drive.” Another interesting solution is a device for holding a spare wheel. Why to have a dirty spare wheel in your trunk? – thought the inventor and equipped the car with a special device which grabs the spare wheel and with the help of electronics cuddles it to the bottom of the bodywork. Notable features are anatomic seats and small steering wheel - obligatory for a sportscar. Front spoiler (more decorative) was made retractable. Decreasing the height, reducing the weight to a little more than 800kg* had a favorable impact on dynamics and stability. However, a top speed of the car is not suprising since the components are taken from a stock car. But this fact didn’t prevent Matevosian to be one of the best at demonstrational speed maneuvering competitions. This passionate enthusiast also had plans of building another car - a camper - but it is not known if it has ever been built.
but I can also add short tech specifications of it:
Length: 3900 mm
Width: 1600 mm
Height: 1112 mm
Weigth: 1100 kg
Top speed: 150 km/h
The car still exists and is now painted red.
*This means that the true weight is not clearly know.
P.S. You can also notice that the drawing in the 5th picture is made by Aleksandr Kulygin, builder of the Pangolina.
P.P.S. I cannot move this topic anywhere...
