ZiL all-terrain vehicles that never became serial

The Likhachev plant was famous by trucksAnd even though now only memories remain of the enterprise, cars still serve in various fields. Of course, most of them have already been gotten rid of. Not because the trucks fell apart - it's just that gasoline engines are not competitive in today's reality. Specialized vehicles, such as overhead cranes, sewage disposal tanks, and drilling rigs, remain at enterprises. But ZIL trucks are still used in private households. They are good for rare trips, since they are inexpensive. And you can live with the gasoline consumption with such use. More all-terrain vehicles ZILs are in demand. Talking about 131 and 157 models.

The design bureau of the Likhachev Plant periodically pleased with new trucks. Some of them are SUVs, and such that the ZIL-131/157 seem to be passenger cars next to them. Some were considered secret, others were regularly written about in thematic magazines. In any case, the models that the author of the AUTO HISTORY channel assembled in the video are little known. Almost everyone will find among them at least one that he has not heard of. In any case, it will be useful to remember the greatness of the Likhachev Plant. After all, these trucks are familiar to many from childhood.
