I think this could be a 1930s Russian GAZ truck, called GAZ-AA. Its the most similar looking truck I can find and I remember in the goofs section of imdb it said that the trucks were post WWI. -- Last edit: 2006-07-12 19:01:46 |

I hope this gets noticed over a year after the last posting ... it's not a GAZ AA; it doesn't resemble in the least a Ford AA, on which the GAZ was based. It might be a Leyland of the 20s or 30s but I'm open to correction on that. |

Agree with you, it can't be neither a Gaz AA nor a Ford AA |

What about Zis-5, Zis-7? Link to "www.armchairgeneral.com" |

Sorry, fck, but the ZiS-5 had a slightly longer bonnet/hood, and the front axle was set further forward. http://www.autogallery.org.ru/zis5.htm |

My guess this is Mercedes-Benz L3000 |

Nothing here looks Mercedes-ish. And not original somehow either... |

Radiator, fenders and cabin look very much like MB L. But probably it's not L3000 this one looks like 2 ton truck... |

The ZIS 5 is the closest so far. |

It´s no Russian car - itˇs a Praga - in this movie "plays" more old czech trucks (owned by Czech collector Mr. Samohyl - two weeks ago died). Some Pragas, Tatras, NWs, etc. |

Praga AN, I guess. |

Has anyone more info on this Samohyl guy? I cannot find anything about him on the net. Perhaps it might solve some unknowns from The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles, which also used some of his vehicles and was filmed in Czechoslovakia. (technically, this was filmed in the CSSR and Indy in the CSFR .gif ";)") ) |
