Looks like the long-bed version of IZh 27151-011-01 which would be 27151-013-01. It seems that they were quite popular in Jamaica at that time? There is another one on the right in this picture. And here is another one in another movie filmed in Jamaica : It would be interesting and useful to know about their nomenclatures used for these models, but I get no results about this Jamaican IZh connection when browsing online. -- Last edit: 2023-05-01 01:57:26 |

Interesting to see that Soviet vehicles were exported to capitalist nations, such as Ladas in Canada, Volgas in the UK, this in Jamaica, etc considering the USSR didn't exactly have the highest opinion of capitalism. Jamaica's proximity to Communist Cuba may have something to do with this truck being there. |

Could also be a gray import. Meaning it was smuggled over without USSR approval of export. |

Michael Manley, prime minister of Jamaica from 1972 to 1980, was friendly to the USSR and Cuba. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Manley#Diplomacy |
