Was the old head gasket blown? It looks like you have mayonaise in the coolant jacket.

Have you ever been in touch with Torsten Meyer from the museum at Pütnitz? He is very well connected and could possibly help.

It's a Jikov carb and parts are probably hard to come by. It will be a lot easier to swap it for a Weber 34ICH carb. They are not expensive. The Weber DGAV used on the Ford Pinto also works well on the S21 engine.

Try tarmot.pl for s21 engine spares.

I'm suffering from Uaz envy big-time here. That is lovely. Congrats on getting it on the road.

Hi Thomas,

Welcome to the forum. I'm Danish but live on the Faroe Islands and work in Germany.

Best regards,

Go for it. It's mechanically simple which makes for easy repairs and from what I hear the turbo Andoria is not a bad engine.

My dream vehicle!!

Get a Volga (if you can find one in decent condition).

A change of circumstances means I will now be in Germany when the meet takes place. Cheaper to fly to the UK from there but will be more than skint until I get the first paycheck.

Yes, buy it now and it can be driven away.

At £570 for a return flight that's not going to happen. Although UK is our closest neighbour you can't go there by sea.

Sounds like it should be a lot of fun. I wish I could join you. I'm suffering badly from island fever at the moment and could do with a break away from this place.

If it's in good nick I don't think the price for the AM is excessive.

The M from Leszek is pricy but its rare to see one that original.

Congrats. 469 or 452? I hope to some day visit Iceland but only if I can get a cheap flight. I don't fancy going there by Norrøna as I suffer badly from sea sickness.

Thanks Martin/Colin for the pictures. It sure looks nice. Martin, good luck with the MOT. I've had all sorts of problems in Denmark and Germany with ignorant testers but usually getting the test done elsewhere solved the problem. I once had a fully restored KMZ MW-750 outfit. It was as new but the t...

Martin, no rush but please do get in touch if you plan to sell it. Any pictures of it?

They used to come up for sale on a fairly regular basis but they are few and far between these days - did they all get blown up in action movies?. I'm about to fork out £3750 for a shitty used car here. IIRC a decent 469 could be found for that kind of money a few years back. I can get a car from Sc...

Eventhough the vehicles are going to be in very good nick coming from Tilo, that is still a lot of money!

Cut up an old inner tube.

Good luck with it. I only ever drove it up and down my driveway (oh, and used it to move my shed - just put a big ratchet strap around the shed and dragged it). I wish I could get a hold of an Uaz and get it up to the Faroe Islands. There is a distinct lack of interesting vehicles here. We have a 25...
