UAZ-3303 with automatic transmission after amateur restoration

As they say, if there is anything stable in this world, it is the design of the UAZ car. Yes, we are talking about the well-known "loaf". This model, first with the index "452D", replaced the outdated one in 1965. And stood on the conveyor for 20 years. After that, she received a new index and ... a minimum of alterations. Probably, the factory decided that everything was fine and everyone was happy with it. Or that “they don’t look for good from good.” And, in a sense, they were right.


After all, just a year after the appearance, the car was awarded a very high award: the gold medal of the prestigious Soviet exhibition VDNKh. And his regalia did not end there. Ten years later, the quality of the light truck was once again noted. Now it was a certificate from the State Committee of Standards on the assignment of the “Quality Mark” model.

In addition, at one time, the Ulyanovsk small-tonnage off-road vehicle was exported to Western Europe. Maybe that's why they decided to keep it unchanged as a memory for future generations? Of course, not everyone agrees with this. Therefore, sometimes enthusiasts try to transform a veteran with their own hands, presenting to everyone what a modernized UAZ could look like. One of these fans is described in a video from the Road News channel.
