Here's something a bit unusual. I picked this up from a person in Ukraine clearing out an older relative's collection of unique model vehicles.
ZIS 110 film shooting, with cameras "Konvas-automatic"
Film station wagon with 35-mm cameras "Konvas-avtomat" 1KSR-1M, the prototype of which was developed in 1969 at the Central Motor Depot of the Committee for Cinematography under the Council of Ministers of the USSR and received positive feedback from operators and other specialists at Tsentrnauchfilm, the film studio named after. Gorky, TSSDF and Mosfilm. The model was made in open and closed versions with a total circulation of 50 pieces in 2014

A fascinating automobile and replica of it. I am sure the people at Packard would agree !

Basic ZIS- 110 introduced in 1946 was inspired by incredible Packard- 180. This happened because USSR leaders fell in love to Packard brand and were udìng these cars very sctive during 30s- 40s. Though in USSR Packard was very respectable car and designers often tried to copy it.
ZIS- 110 had several modifications- basic limousine version, convertible ZIS- 110A, armoured limousine ZIS- 115, 4×4 experimental version. In the mid 50s some cars were converted into ambulances and taxis.
In 1958 ZIS- 110 was replaced by the next model ZIL- 111 made in Packard Carribean style.
Some ZIS- 110 in 60s were converted into special cars for cinema production.
I guess this excellent model produced by the workshop Koleso ( The Wheel if translate from Russian) in Kiev.
Hope this information will help.

The Mobile Control Room is on a Bedford chassis, according to my internet sources....
