REVIEW OF CAR MODELS MADE IN RUSSIA AND THE USSR. NEW Edition 4.2 March 1998 |
|---|
EWA has always tried to carry as many of these models as it could find. Many of the models, as Alex explains, are still made in the various parts of the old USSR, but they are in many cases even more difficult to obtain. Those we do have are listed under the general 'model manufacturer' name of 'USS', which you will see from the article is a great over-simplification, since very many different factories were and are involved. The models are also difficult to find since there has never been a comprehensive marketing system for them. We have recently added many new (to us) USSR car models to our stocks and all are shown in our on line catalogs.
We believe the following information to be accurate and is presented in good faith. Alex provides his email address and welcomes comments.
The articles total over 300kb, so we provide them here for browsing or for downloading for later reading.
