It is a Gaz-22 Volga.

They were built in Russia in 1962, and because it is a stationwagon they were not sold to the public but to companies only.

The normal sedans could be bought by private-buyers.

Unfortunately I can not understand what is written on the box...

Anybody ?

Sound a little strange........asking an American if he can translate Russian for me....

Nothing too complex here. Top left says Automobile Model. Top right is GAZ-22 Volga. Down center is Nash Avtoprom, which translates to Our Auto Industry and is the model manufacturer; I googled it and found that Nash Avtoprom is a Hongwell brand.

@paul-rouffa You are right!ย  I should have recognized that one - we have many others shown at https://www.hobbydb.com/marketplaces/hobbydb/subjects/nash-avtoprom-brand ย  That's a great wagon!

@paul-rouffa can I pay you in Rubles ?

Contrary to what mainstream media tells us, this is a gold-backed currency, so you should be able to get a profit over time.... Laughing Out Loud ย

This model car was produced by Premium Collectables& Trading and packaged in Nash Avtoprom box. The same models Gaz-22 Volga were introduced as Ist Models and De Agostini. Ist had the most reach complectation, included painted saloon, photo etching windscreens and registration numbers.

All models of Volga, Pobeda and Moskvich made PCT for Nash Avtoprom ( Our Industry)

And the models of GAZ- AA, GAZ M-1 and others are made by Hongwell for them.
