Old Cars At The Tashkent Polytechnical Museum

Who knew there was Soviet automobile style beyond the ubiquitous Lada? Drive on down to the confusingly named Polytech Museum and you can check out some sweet Russian rides.

Looking a little bit like vintage 1950s USA. Bold choice, an orange sherbet colored chariot.
The Russians had their own military utility Jeep. Say hello to the GAZ-67 - 1957 model year. No door, just a flap and mounted tools flanking the opening. A shovel and a saw, ready to do damage.
Getting fancy, the Soviet Limo. The Chayka.
No matter what the material challenges are to producing a luxury car, one can always go fancy with a hood ornament. Stag and star proudly announce your arrival.
Another lineup of vintage vehicles, more for the everyman comrade. Cheery.
