GAZ M20 Pobeda is now a luxurious and brutal SUV

Work on restoration of old Soviet cars – is a complicated matter. It is expensive both financially and in terms of time. Before you start restoring a car, you need to soberly assess your strengths. First, you will need at least a garage. Second, the skills of a car mechanic, body repairman and painter. Third, a lot of money. It only seems that spare parts for Soviet cars are sold at flea markets and cost pennies, that is, a little more than scrap metal. In fact, everything has changed long ago. This is already a full-fledged business, where resellers search all over the former USSR for parts, and then sell them at ten times the price. It is especially difficult to find spare parts for models like the Pobeda.

And then there are people who just make what they like out of old cars. They do not care about the opinions of others and the contemptuous glances of collectors. They create the car the way it is seen in dreams. This is how the Volga appeared with powerful V8 engines and huge, sparkling chrome alloy wheels. And it doesn't matter that someone does not like them - but the owner smiles happily, looking at his creation. The author of the MOTORSvideo channel will tell about such a project. Someone will think why so disfigure the classic Soviet "Victory". But after all, the car was doomed to scrap metal, but it was saved. And yes, the car looks great.
