Great photography!

I have the car but never noticed the center exit exhaust pipe. Maybe someone will add period appropriate whitewalls and share pics here. I think it would look nice with blackwalls or whitewalls.

Excellently pictured in twilight! Perhaps KGB agents inside will complete the impression.

... or a chauffeur and a party leader on the back seat ...

Got on of these too.
