Here is one of the many 1:43 reproductions of the Russian miniature manufacturer Nash Avtoprom. The 11-73, produced until 1948 and replaced by the famous Pobeda, was launched in 1941. It was based on the 1936 GAZ M1, which was itself based on a Ford Model B. Its design is quite outdated. The 11-73 was a propulsion, equipped with a 6 cylinder 3.5-liter developing 76 hp.

Like all GAZ models at that time, the M1, launched in 1936, closely derived from a Ford model. In that case, it was a 4-cylinder Ford B. The production regularly continued until 1941, then in dribs and drabs until 1943. Here, the Russian model car manufacturer Nash Avtoprom reproduced the Taxi version. The Phaeton convertible is also available.

Information is scarce about this Soviet car, produced in small series between 1934 and 1936. Here we have the "sedan" version of the Gaz A, therefore, covered with a solid roof, and not a tarp. The base was the 1927 Ford Model A. So the lines, in 1934, were no more up to date... This is one of the many miniature cars at 1:43 scale of the Russian manufacturer Nash Avtoprom.

The GAZ AAA was the three-axle version of the GAZ AA, which was itself a variant of the Ford pickup AA. Here we have a “Karakum” version. This 9,400 km/5,800 miles expedition conducted in 1933, departing from Moscow, went to the Karakum Desert in Turkemnistan and return to Moscow. This Soviet event was comparable to the Yellow and Black Cruises oragnized by Citroën.

Most of the career of the GAZ 69 was made under the brand UAZ (it was then simply called UAZ 69). It was released in 1953, and also available in the catalogue of the Romanian manufacturer Aro. Compared to the GAZ 69A, the distinction is easy: here only two doors, four for the other variant, also reproduced by the Russian miniature specialist Nash Avtoprom.

The Soviet company KIM was founded in 1929 and first assembled the Ford Model A and the commercial Model AA, which, later in 1933, were produced by Gaz. Then in 1939, that copy of Opel Kadett was launched. Actually, it was developed on the basis of a Ford Prefect. After the war, the very low production of the Kim 10-50 (the 10-51 being the convertible version) ceased, in favor of the Moskvich 400.

The Soviet company KIM was founded in 1929 and first assembled Ford A and AA. But in 1933, Gaz started producing the two models. The KIM 10-50, a copy of the Opel Kadett (but developed on the basis of a Ford Prefect), was launched in 1939. After the Second World War, the very low production of the 10-50 (and this 10-51 convertible) ceased, in favor of the Moskvich 400.

The Soviet Company GAZ was founded in 1932. After WWII, the USSR car production often copied European or American models. But before, the vehicles were officially based on American cars. The M415, which looked like the GAZ M1 sedan and was released in 1937, was really a variant of the Ford AA. Nash Avtoprom reproduces this model, more or less forgotten today, at a small prize.

Produced from 1930 to the end of the 1940s, the GAZ 03-30 was based on the GAZ AA, ie the American Ford AA. But only front-wheel drives were available. During that period, 18,000 units of the 03-30 to 17 places were assembled. The 3.3-liter 4-cylinder (50 hp) engine could reach the speed of 65 km/h (40 mph).

The career of this phaeton was rather short since the 11-40, directly based on the 11-73 sedan (also reproduced by Nash Avtoprom) was produced in 1940 and 1941. Only six units are supposed to have been manufactured. The engine was borrowed from the 11-73 (76 hp 3.5-litre 6-cylinder), while the chassis was an old Ford platform.

Before WWII, Kim copied the Opel Kadett for its own cars. But after the war, the first Moskvich models were actually real Opel Kadetts, whose tooling was part of the reparations package. This 400-420 sedan was launched in 1946, and the convertible 400-420A was released in 1954. Their production did not last long since this family of models disappeared in 1956. Also available in gray.

The Volga, launched in 1969, (very) gradually modified its style. Unveiled in 1967 (GAZ-Volga 24), the model inherited rectangle headlights in 1976 (Type 3102), modernized its front grille in 1992 (31029) then became 3110 in 1997 with redesigned front and rear parts. It was renamed 31105 in 2004. After IST Models, Nash Avtoprom reproduces the 3110.

The GAZ Volga M21 was unveiled in the USSR at the end of 1955, as a successor to the Pobeda. Production started so slowly that the Swiss Revue Automobile in 1961 wrote: "mass production planned". The Volga was actually a Soviet bestseller in the 1960s. The Russian miniature manufacturer Nash Avtoprom also reproduces the station wagon GAZ M22.

As its name suggests, Moskvich cars were built in a plant located in Moscow. This brand was originally called Kim, then became MZMA in 1947, and eventually Moskvich. The 408, launched in late 1964, was a classic but rather elegant sedan, technically close to the 407 to which it succeeded. The 408 was equipped with four round headlights. They turned rectangle on the 412, launched in 1967.

This copy of Fiat 600 owes its nickname, Zaporozhetz, to the Zaporozhye factory that produced it, in Ukraine, part of the USSR at the time. Launched in late 1960, the car was renamed 965A in 1962, with new chrome side moldings. The turn lights, first on the wings, were placed under the headlights and its rear V4 was lifted up to 887 cc and 27 hp.

The Soviet company KIM was founded in 1929 and first assembled Ford A and AA. But in 1933, Gaz started producing the two models. The KIM 10-50, a copy of the Opel Kadett (but developed on the basis of a Ford Prefect), was launched in 1939. After the Second World War, the very low production of the 10-50 (and this 10-51 convertible) ceased, in favor of the Moskvich 400.
