Some history: TheGAZ M21 Volgawas produced in theSoviet Unionfrom 1956 to 1970. The very first Volga, t was developed in the early 1950s. Volgas were built with high ground clearance (which gives it a specific "high" look, ontrary to "low-long-sleek" look of Western cars of similar design), ugged suspension, trong and forgiving engine, nd rustproofing on a scale unheard of in the 1950s. The Volga was stylistically in line with the majorUnited Statesmanufacturers of the period, nd incorporated such then-luxury features as the reclining front seat, igarette lighter, eater, indshield washer and 3-wave radio. Three series (generations) GAZ-21 were released, ost easily distinguished by the grille. The First Series (1956—58), nown as theStar, eatured a lattice of three large horizontal bars in the center of which was a medallion with a star. Vehicles of the Second Series (1958-1962), nown as theShark, eatured a grille with 16 vertical slits. Finally, he Third Series (1962-1970), nown as theBaleen, eatured a grille with 34 thin vertical rods. The Third Series was produced from 1962 to 1970. The 1962 models dropped the leaping deer hood ornament, nd had a new grille.Theheadlinerchanged from cloth to vinyl, nd the radio became optional. Volga Dvadtsat' Odin" ("Volga Twenty One" in Russian) was produced nearly as long as theCitroen DS, nd played the same role in Russian automotive culture: a legend-on-wheels. Good luck bidding!! |
