And it's an odd find in Finland, but since 1948 (I've the changed the year), a Soviet-Finnish trading company 'Konela' started importing all sorts of Soviet vehicles to Finland (from MAZ to GAZ, from Mossi to Pobeda). Though not much is said about ZiS trucks in Finland (and they might even have had a different model name and modifications there, as it was a common practice -> ZIL 130 becomes ZIL 136I with Finland's own Valmet 411BS diesel engine and there was a finnish variant of GAZ 24 known as GAZ 24 Konela with a 3 liter Ford V6 , etc) but they were most likely on that import list as well. Here's an interesting read (you'll need to translate it): Link to "www.google.com" -- Last edit: 2020-01-30 10:17:03
