GAZ, UAZ, IMS, M461, ARO....
GAZ-69 took the place of GAZ-67B in 1953 and remained on assembly line till 1972 practically without changes. First cars
have been produced in Gorkiy city (before 1930 and right now - Nizhniy Novgorod). Then, in December of 1954 production of GAZ-69
has began in Ulianovsk, UAZ. GAZ-69 production on GAZ lines has been cancelled in
1956. Officially GAZ-69 became UAZ-69, but new name didn't get accustomed even in official papers. I heard only
delighted opinions of GAZ-69 from many people, although I think the engine could be more powerful. The engine of the car
GAZ-69was taken from famous "Pobieda" GAZ-M20. I don't know why, but designers didn't care to supply the car with
sidemirrors.The only small mirror in the uppermiddle of windscreen was useless in tarpaulin covered car because of small
rear window.
Tyres, engine and some other parts are interchangeable with GAZ-M20, M72, UAZ(not for engine)-450, 451, Polish Nysa
and Zhuk.
This model was manufactured in Romania too, as a trade mark ("IMS" or M461). IMS had the body of a GAZ69 with 2 doors and the mechanical parts (engine, front and rear axels) like of a GAZ4. M461 kept the body of a GAZ69 but equiped with a Romanian engine 4-cyl. 4-stroke OHV. Those cars were manufactured between 1955-1965 at "ARO" SA Campulung-Muscel, Arges county, Romania.
jij zal wel de ARO bedoelen maar het is allemaal hetzelfde ding.
zijn er ineens andere regels??
