This is the Coise 985.(1960)-according to my source,it had a frameless body made of steel.The designers made some serious mistakes,such as location of lighting   .The employees of the plant would called it (crocodile ), because of its front design.The coise was built at the Kurgan Bus Plant.

Yes, the Kavz 985 built in the Soviet Union by the Kurgan Bus Plant. It was based on the GAZ 51 truck and featured a self-supporting structure. It remained a one-off
