New member in Surrey
Hi, I’m a bit useless at the whole internet thing but I’m the person who bought Andy’s black GAZ 66 last year. It’s been out to work on site and had a few alterations done on it, namely a few windows and a large awning as I use it for timber framing. I’m looking to buy a trailer to tow on the odd occasion but not sure if towing a military drawbar trailer will totally kill my horsepower ? Anyone got any input on this ? Ideally a trailer to carry a Bukhanka. Can’t seem to load any pictures but it’s taken me long enough time to suss out getting to this stage

Hello and cheers from Moscow - thanks for keeping on using our trucks! Black ones are rare around here - would love to see some pictures if you sort them out.
it is unanimously agreed that ZMZ-V8 is more on the flimsy side even for the truck itself, I personally wouldn't think about towing anything heavy on the road - those slopes will kill ya.
Anyway, welcome!

Welcome to the forum! Very helpful guys here and plenty of info to browse through. I met Andy and his (now yours) Gaz a while back - she's a tidy unit. I did borrow a Hub wheel nut socket from him with the proviso I send it to the new owner. PM your address and ill post it to you. Im just down the way near Guildford so perhaps could arrange a drop off. Enjoy the truck!
