Hi all

I need to go into a burned CD to get the pictures. I will try to get some up tomorrow. The 1980 Vaz (Lada) 2105/7 4 door sedan has all 4 doors that open and the hood and trunk also open up. Nicely detailed for the scale.

Very nice. Thanks for sharing the pics. So is the motor up front on that little hatchback? Or did they due the spare tire ala Subaru circa 1980s?

That 4 door started out life as a late 50s Packard and the Hatch was a Fiat made in USSR. I really like the way all the doors and hod open. Verywell done.

I was trying to look up the pictures of the Lada but I have not found them. I have about 3 CD roms full of pictures that I have to go through. I am expecting reply to my orders to the cost of getting them. It will not be cheap but then again you have some nice cars that are different from the others you own.
