Hey everyone, here is my 70 (Belvedere) Crewcab Roadrunner. There were 4 of those in Russia since soviet times. Two were cut in pieces and the third one burned down. I found mine in Dagestan totally backyard customized by locals, running on propane. Front end was cut in pieces and welded together with parts from some russian cars after car accedent, i guess. After sandblasting floors and torsion bars anchor appeared garbage so i replaced them and painted bottom and inside of car. Put proper wheels and tires and now it is looks more like a car. Will make 383 swap with mild street setup. Looking to drive it upcoming summer))

MALADYETS !!!!!!
 
Any idea how those cars got into Russia? Not a hot bed of American car sales. I guess they could have come in through Finland, they have a lot of Mopars there.
 
You don't know how lucky your are, boy, back in the US..
 
Is that grill from a GAZ?. I can’t place the headlight bezels, but they look familiar, like a Fiat 126 looking soviet car? My brother had a super clean 70 satellite 4 door he bought from the original owner back in the day, it was NICE. I had a beater 70 Belvedere 4 door at the same time, fun cars. I’d love to find another
