This is considered a retro-car nowadays. Besides preserved museum and collection examples, they can only be seen rusting away in distant villages.

In my city,after they were phased out as transporter ,their variants such as fire engine ,water sprinkler,and sewage cleaner survived for a long time.

In the USSR they were used in the same manner but I haven't seen one in service myself. They were withdrawn from service in the 1980's, I think.

Thanks for the info,my friend!
I like the ZIS-150 mainly because of their archaic appearance ,and they were part of my childhood memory.

Speaking of the older generations, this car is viewed in the same manner. And it's a classic among retro fans.

Yes!They have gained popularity as a retro classic,and the prices of  their scale models are ridiculously high!

I like vehicle design from the 40's - 60's, too. Modern plastic doesn't look that good. Speaking of scale models, nothing's gonna surprise me after railroad modelling)))
