Museum "Auto-USSR" Michael Krasintsa (35 photos)

Excellent tour of the museum, which collects the car Soviet automobile industry. Directly under the open sky. Although over, the museum in the true sense of the word Nazan this place easily.



First I walked all avtokollektsiyu on the main field and in the yard. Mikhail appeared to constantly optimize the balance of their cars, moving them back and forth, gathering in rows by brand, year, color or the same slave status. Cars "roam" on the grounds, among them there are also newly arrived items.



The modest sign on the "house-museum". House - because I live there Mikhail and his wife, dog and cat. A museum - because the sign about the museum.


And here is the proprietor autotravel came from a neighboring village. He Says - drove in the last of his money to buy the latest issue of the magazine "Avtolegendy USSR", who arrived in the mail, and almost did not go back for non-payment. Voyazhiroval Mikhail here on this, the blue brainchild AZLK with long disused number signs. Moscow Lenin Komsomol Automobile Plant has mastered the model "412" in 1967. The same car was produced on "Izhmash". Already before 1997. In Bulgaria's sister "four hundred and twelfth" serially collected from Soviet parts. The export version of the "412" model called the Moskvitch-Elite 1500.


The car "Moskvich-426" was captured in the guest book one of the visitors and friends of Michael Krasintsa.


In the backyard of the museum, next to the cliff lined up in the ticker representatives of well-known and well-deserved family, "the twenty-first." Closer to us - 4 car "Volga" GAZ-21 of the second series with the radiator grille of the "shark mouth". The last three cars - the "Volga" the first series, the GAZ-21B with a "star».


Unidentified dvuhkabinny GAS. From the newly arrived items. Can you help him correctly identify?


GAZ M-72. Crossover? This car, of course, is very similar to GAZ M-20 "Victory", but it is not, and in common with the M-20 is not too much. In the postwar years the USSR national economy is experiencing an acute need for a machine that would be able to combine the best qualities of the jeep (or rather all-terrain vehicle, a jeep or SUV words in those days did not know) and city car. It was decided to "cross" the obsolete army four-wheel drive all-terrain vehicle GAZ-69 and "victory." The equipment of the new body-wheel drive vehicle was the same as the trasyy.livejournal.com/749164.html#cutid1у M-20: soft upholstery, heater, clock, dual-band (long and medium wave) radio. Given the need to work on a dirt road, on M-72 for the first time in the USSR it was applied windscreen washer - a mechanical pump, powered by pressing a special foot pedal. On the radiator grille with the logo set the label M72-like logo and decorated the hood of the car.

Road tests of the prototype M-72 showed its high permeability and handling characteristics. The car was moving steadily through the muddy rough roads, on the sand, plowing, snow-covered terrain, taking the ups up to 30 degrees. Due to the streamlined body on the highway speed reached 100 km / h, while fuel consumption was less than the GAZ-69. By February 1955 the prototype took place more than 40 thousand kilometers, which made it possible to identify some of the weaknesses and eliminate the defects. In May, the car tested in the mountains of the Crimea, and in June started the mass production of the M-72 on gas. M-72 has become the world's first all-wheel drive car with frameless (carrying) body and released in 1955-1957 in the amount of 4677 copies.

M-72 has been well received by rural drivers and made us take a fresh look at the idea of ​​a jeep. M-72 appeared in places where has never been any one car: the mountain passes, in the forest, crossing the dangerous fords and the like. Small issue would not allow GAZ M-72 purchase fame comparable to GAZ-69, however, evaluating the M-72 on a global scale, it can be argued that for the time of release, he was at the level of world analogues, and in many ways ahead of them . With the completion of the issue of GAZ-M20 "Victory" and ceased production of GAZ-M72.





The famous deer chrome, paint on the hood of the "Volga" car disappeared from the later series, with cars designed to work in a taxi cab company and export models. Beautiful sweeping figure could severely injure a pedestrian, "podsazhennogo" on the hood in an accident. Choosing a metal emblem was due to the presence of deer on the arms of Nizhny Novgorod, then - Gorky. Over the years, the release-figure mascot could be particularly small. Along with the deer nakapotnym installed and a longitudinal cast molding. Nowadays, deer - an extra headache for car owners, retromanov: The original figure is in good condition (or Novodel) is not less than $ 200 (for a new original assembly may be asked to 300-500 USD) and therefore attracts unwanted attention and knowledgeable people just stupid podrostkov- "deer", seeking to break off all that is possible.
