4leks Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 It is 6 yrs old! Full test & more pics are here (in Russian unfortunately) http://www.autoreview.ru/new_site/year2001/n08/volga/volga.htm The car is a mixture of BMW 850 & russian Volga GAZ-21P. Nice motor BTW! It took them 17 month to build it & more than £200K. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 It looks sublime. I don't quite understand how they've done it though? Is the grey one meant to be how the black one started? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewOW Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 Now that I like! Shame about the suspension though. Could do with less body roll. Low power from such a large engine? I think its the ultimate Overhauling on a motor yet, considering its change so very much from the original. Probably started as four Volgas, cut and welded for the widebody, 2 door version.
