Salvation of an old ZIL truck - this car has a chance to be revived

Buying an old Soviet lorry in our time - this is a controversial decision. Many would like to have such equipment. For what purpose - it is not always clear, rather, just to have it. It will come in handy, maybe it will help to earn money. And some make their childhood dream come true. In this case, the truck is meticulously restored to its factory condition. It also happens that car rots near the house, usually private. But the car is available in the household for emergencies.

Which Soviet truck to buy? Here, ZIL or GAZ medium-duty trucks are usually chosen. By the way, the latter, in our time, is preferable. First, it's more economical. Secondly, the V8 gasoline engines that were installed on the GAZ-53 are still being produced. Recently, by the way, they resumed production. Yes, and there are more such trucks than ZIL, respectively, there are more chances to find Soviet spare parts. But the authors of the Polygon-98 channel are not looking for easy ways. They bought ZiL, although it cost them inexpensively - 20 thousand rubles. The previous owner is happy that the car will return to service. Although who knows these two comrades. They are capable of both restoring equipment and destroying it by building another makeshift "monster".
