Thanks Chav......I failed to see a Moskovitch in your pic.....should have known! Guess I was russian too much to post an answer first.
I wish I knew what are you saying Jack. For the record, I am not Russian if that's what you are hinting, never been to Moscow or Russia. I used to drive a later version of Moskvitch that was converted to pickup. Also had a Trabant before moving to the States. Some pictures from an auto show in my home town, Sep 2024.

@chav Chav, I am aware you aren't Russian....I was just referring to the car's country of manufacture.

When Shirl & I were in Russia, it was still Soviet Communist; 1990. There were no new cars sold, and no such thing as personal financing even if you did find a new car.
Not sure if there is a Moskvitch in this shot that I took but my focus was to capture the long bread lines all over the country. This was in Leningrad (Now renamed back to the original, St. Petersburg).
