They're owned by an ex serviceman from Moskovitch racing. He started collecting cars during his time on the team and continued to do so after he retired.
His collection got a little out of hand and he counldn't store the cars in Moscow anymore. So what did he do? Sold his inner-city flat and bought a place with a massive field in a tiny village (three houses) 300kms away. The best bit is, you can only get to his yard in dry weather - there's no road leading to it. He's got about 230 cars with around 70 used for spares.

Nice! I'd take the girl in the second picture than the car! I remember seeing something like this on another website, I'll have to try and find it again.
Amazing how the Russians just basically copied the Americans in terms of 50's car designs.0 -

Well, in those days everybody in the former GDR wanted to get rid of their eastern cars, they all wanted to drive western cars...Max_Damage wrote: »Jaysus, he must have been desperate to swap with a Renault!0 -
An aunt of mine (now deceased) used to drive a Moskovich estate, like in the above pics. She was retired missionary teacher, and had taught in schools throughout Africa and the Middle East in the 50s & 60s. I don't know how she came across 'Boris' as she called him. She retired to Timoleague in Cork in the 70s, and i remember her asking me to accompany her in the car to keep an eye on things (her eyesight was failing quite badly actually :eek:), so there i was, 8 or 9 years old, riding shotgun and letting her know what we were coming up to ..... sounds scary know thinking of it, but it was such an adventure with Helen in those days 0
