Sometimes it surprises what kind of equipment does not rest in the fields, villages and other wilderness in the expanses of the former USSR. So this time, the attention of the masters from the YouTube channel "Combat Crew" was attracted by a very short, but equally interesting ad on Avito. Somewhere in the Pskov region, the rarest all-terrain vehicle Lopasnya with a 6x6 wheel arrangement was found. As it turned out a little later, this particular specimen plied the expanses of Antarctica in its best years!
The state of the car, to put it mildly, depressing. The owner himself sold it for restoration and gave some information about the all-terrain vehicle. It turns out that this is an early copy, one of those that were equipped with engines from the VAZ 2108 and Oka with a volume of 1,3 and 1,1 liters, respectively. They did not use more powerful internal combustion engines - they were afraid that they would break the transmission. Specifically, this sample with wheels on the chambers, but a little later they began to produce special ultra-low pressure tires. It is also important that the swamp all-terrain vehicle could move through the water with the help of an outboard boat motor. For this, a transom is provided in the area of \uXNUMXb\uXNUMXbthe rear door.
The purchase has already been made, and now Combat Crew plans to restore the unique vehicle. So far, there is not even documentation for the all-terrain vehicle, and obviously there is a lot of work to be done, which can be tracked on the mentioned channel.
