The story of one "troika" Bashny.Net

In May 2014 bought spontaneously in 2103 in 1973 in Vladivostok. Eyeing something retro already quite a while, even in 2013, bought the Volga 24 of 1986, but became disillusioned after a week sold - Restayl not in chrome, the soul does not lay down.
By the way, the Volga in good condition 70s still get not changed my mind - Track ads.
Harmony on the announcement was here such:

Price was listed 20 TR Called - on the phone said they have someone coming to watch. Offered 5 tr more accurately and take away. The seller said that is not the money thing - do not want to give outbid - come. Grab wife - because back go to Lada and I rushed to Vladivostok (I live 30 km).
Found a garage right, the seller owner - Grandpa 1927 years and his son (if I remember exactly). Grandpa said it was the first three, which was sold in Vladivostok and he is the only owner of a store, and in 1973. Rolled around the garage and asked documents - gave money and say we're leaving. The owner was clearly impressed by the speed of parting with the car - it was evident that flustered, he was not ready to part with the car. It was the first and last time I saw him - more on that later.
That such was the appearance of a car after ferrying me to the yard:

Painted in the color of the door not:

Salon:

Book native (cherry - so now we call it in the family car - stuck):

(In the words of the master - that's all over it did. Later on, I was useful)

Bought a few days and doubted whether to pursue it))) Especially after voiced cost of repainting in 36 tr )))
I decided I would do so and wife supported. The very first purchase - found on the Internet moldings around the missing tail lights for 200 rubles and I forwarded them to Vladivostok (not too lazy to the same people). In the photo the first new thing:

Found in the medicine cabinet here is such a bintik) 1969

Preparing for repainting - disassembly. Was impressed that the owner was not too lazy to cover all Gadget clay, unscrew all very simple. Exception - cranked stud on the front and had to cut.

this one sidelight)

During disassembly never saw a hint of rust. Parents had a new trio - there was a hole through. Found just such a note (photo), to date, mileage 95,000. I called the owner to ask what is a circle on the odometer - he laughed and said that the first course. I do not think he lied.

Cars for painting:

While there are no cars in the yard doing polished chrome. Amway - I recommend))) kidnapped his wife from the kitchen - until then tried a bunch of other polishes.

Returned from a painting. Color asked to pick up on the inner surfaces of unburned. I fully accept the result. Painting 25 tr As the price of the car.

Incidentally, the painting was replaced by a new windshield, found a thousand rubles in Vladivostok, bargain against the glass received a box of junk in the form of spare parts)

All summer collecting the missing details of chrome, moldings, new headlights glasses, glass castle and a bunch of different small things. Sometimes two parcels per day received.

Reached his hands to the wheel - car on bricks, old tires (rear snowball front Moskvitch went in the trash), native is not particularly trying to find - bought Japanese.

The discs were sandblast and powder painted in a heat chamber. The result is quite good - thought it would be worse. In life, they are not as wildly brilliant, contrary asked not lachit.
