They are threatening to create a body from profile sheets for the Gazelle

Their production will be carried out by the Production of Special Equipment (PST) of the Gorky Automobile Plant. As it became known to Motor magazine, galvanized profile sheet C21, manufactured in accordance with GOST 24 045−2016 with a thickness of 0.7 mm, will be used as a material for the manufacture of the front and side walls of the body.

The van can have different dimensions for mounting on a Gazelle or Sobol chassis of any generation. The title photo shows the L3 option: its external dimensions are 4.2 × 2.2 × 2.3 m.

It is important that all metal components of the van (base, sides, roof, doors) are subjected to cataphoretic priming, and the external surfaces are painted with two-component polyurethane enamel.

The floor is covered with 18mm thick transport plywood and the rear wall is fitted with side lights, rubber buffers, a handrail and a retractable ladder.

It is assumed that this option is suitable for transporting delicate cargo: it will be much more difficult for thieves to open such a van than a tented or composite one.
