A friend of mine who lives in Minsk, Belarus sent me this link

to show how they rebuilt the russian "Pobeda" in 2005. I guess this car was built in 2005 by a bunch of Russian rich guys but I don't know if they will actually be producing this car. Up top, the black and white picture shows the old school "Pobeda" when they were producing them from 1946 - 1958. My grandfather bought one of these back in the day for 20,000 rubles which at that time a ruble was worth more then a dollar. Of course this was back in the Soviet cold war days. Kinda crazy. I thinks its a pretty cool car. Just thought I'd share with you guys. Enjoy

 

looks good. nice big body car. gotta love it

 

Very nice! Elements of early '50's Hudson in front with elements of Chrysler and Rolls progressing to the rear. Nice blend of styles, both inside and out. A really nice looking big retro-cruiser. Thanks for the link!

 

I like it a lot. Big and excessive.

It's all very original sans the FX tail lights.

 

I won't say it's a beauty, but looks pretty cool . . .

 

I just think it looks different. If I could, I would buy one.

 

This car is the **** im so proud

 

I've heard about that car as I am Russian my self, From my understanding it had a 745Li engine & something to do with a BMW on the interior. ta****ly done but still no Saleen S7

 

it's like what's it called... merc, right? love that style as we see some here in so cal. reminds me of zoot suits.... and low riders.
and the guy from monster's garage. jesse james

 

it looks pretty clean

- Nizhu

 

is it just me or does the slant back rear end remind you of the old Astom Martin V8 Vantage?
Niice style tho.

 

I think it looks awesome! I really like how they did the HMSL, very unique. And I do agree with the comment made about the glaring similarity of the taillights to those on an FX (although I don't think it's a bad thing).

 

Not to bad, not the best.

 

Im russian too

Actually you might be wrong about this car.
The Pobeda in this pictures seems to be done on the chassis of W140 ( or 210 but i doubt it since the car looks huge ) look on the central console and doors. Seems like an old CL to me.

I think you are talking about this car :

Kinda a retro Volga on chassis of 850 CSI.
