[skinnyman]

love the skoda, lada looks well to!! used to drive my dads 1974 Moskvitch 412 as first car after passing my test!! lol never let me down!!

Did it look like this one?

[Rouslan]

The car looks really good, the rear end sits very well. I also love the photo with then helicopter in it! Where was that taken?

Kazan Helicopter Factory -is the key) Civil and millitary Heli's are made here. This is a removed from the service light helicopter based in one of the holiday houses as a monument.

Nowdays Moskvich is a rarity, very solid car, i drove one too. God help you if you get in a head to head contact with this piece of thick metal))))

Some nice pics of a well-made Resto -cal Moskvitch:

Thanks Mate!

I Think there are no Skoda cars in US (maybe I'm wrong) Maybe we should search for one and then conquer the whole world!!!

Hi everyone! A little Update here and i got a question for the car electronics specialists!

Installed A'pexi turbo timer last week, but there's a well known problem... factory alarm system not working when the engine is on, because of ComfortControlModule. Its not a big problem for me personally, because i've installed an inderpendent aftermarket alarm system before, BUT it wold be better to make factory alarm work normally too.

So I read about turbotimer installation on VWVortex (jetta 2003) - problem there was solved by installing a relay that cutting a fuse wire of CCM. Fuse â„–6 was the key there, but i haven't one in my fuse box as well as the fuse Black/Purple wire from the back.

Can anyone help me? Where is a CCM located and how can i get to it or it's wiring?...

really impressive one, I wonder how you make it on humps and stuff, doesn't the sump catch on them? Anyway, it's unthinkable to have such lowered car here in Poland, it'd be immediately damaged thanks to our 'superb' roads.

Keep it real .

Oh thanks!) I have a sump Shield -3mm of steel, but anyway, can't go so low all the time, only on summer days usually I think roads here are worse than even in Poland... Maybe you know old Russian adage, in English it sounds like a: "There are two disasters in Russia - Fools and Roads..."

Gorgeous car- can't help with the turbo timing question much, but I'm almost certain the CCM is under the steering wheel somewhere... not much help though! The second picture where it's parked on the road is a good contrast- perfectly clean car on a broken down road.

Nice.

That is beautiful!

Fantastic looking car!

Hi

Happy New Year and welcome aboard.

Your car has a awesome body shine, really stands out.

Those wheels are neat, its nice to see something different and original.

All you need now are some FSB stickers on it to get you through the heavy traffic
