You can't really use the space over the cab like Oz did with his Zil because of the Gazs tipping cab but you could go higher with a roof tent or pop up.

Nice looking truck.

Welcome to the forum.

Not a Gaz 69 but here is a Uaz 469 with a Gaz 66 V8 in it.

vactan....£42 for 5 litre, and it does work....again it needs to be overpainted, the boat hull is blathered in it, i originally bought a 500cc sample and was very impressed, now wont buy anything else, and is half the price of jenolite, suitable for inside fuel tanks and potable water also.... Look...

that ratty Gaz of yours Steady John, no need to get upset and start firing insults. I'm not attacking you it's just that your project doesn't seem to make any sense.

I've met Lewis and he knows his Russian stuff. Like you said, I'm sure this didn't come from him. I think the attitude problem comes from pre Internet years where if you wanted information you would come along to a MVT or club monthly meeting and hope to meet someone who would be generous enough to ...

Congratulations and welcome to the forum Samuel.

I was thinking that. It must be the fumes.

yelled at the vise man off the village and he told me the diffrentials are the same

The good thing about fitting them to the Uaz is that it can't make much difference to the road noise.
