In Kazakhstan, a Soviet convertible for 99 million rubles was put up for sale

A rare ceremonial ZIS-110B ceremonial ceremonial ceremonial is found on the classifides, which was released in a limited circulation in the 1950s. In Kazakhstan, the 1951 convertible was returned to the original state of the release of gray-blue. In total, 270 “open” limousines were produced at the Stalin plant, and the public debut took place after the death of the Soviet leader in 1953.

How the Stalin ZIS fell apart

ZIS-110B is the first post-war domestic car with a soft top. The roof turned out to be wayward: removal/installation took half an hour! In cold weather, under a tented top, it was uncomfortable, so the limousine with a traditional body turned out to be more massive. At first, convertibles were used only for ceremonies and meetings of the leaders of socialist countries.

The fate of a copy from Kazakhstan is unknown, but the restoration is made qualitatively: in the photographs, the rarity looks like new. But the description is contradictory: there is confusion with the year of release (1950 or 1951), it is indicated that under the hood is a six-cylinder engine, although an in-line “eight” of a 6.0 liter (140 hp and 400 nm) in a ligament with a 3-speed “mechanics” was put from the plant.

It is difficult to discuss the price of 99 million rubles, because really rare ZIS cars rarely appear on the classifides, and ordinary “hundred tenths” are traded with a scatter of 14 to 70 million rubles. However, in early May, the same ZIS-110B convertible cost 90 million rubles: a solid allowance ten percent in a couple of weeks!

Red Putilovets: The first Soviet limousine

Representative converters of the Soviet era have long become collectible value, but in Kyrgyzstan they still take parades on ZIL-111V: Phaetons from the 1960s. In Bishkek, they managed to preserve in an authentic state two rarest machines with a hydraulic drive of a soft top, a V8 engine and automatic.
