My friend is paying to fix a lot of the parts on the UAZ and restore an East German Trabant. Put "DAKO" in payments here and I'll give him the money from it: ko-fi.com/oxideyt
UAZ-469 used to pretty common here in east germany too due to alot of them ending on the used car market in the 90's, though they've all but been replaced by the lada niva, now those are just about everywhere they are coming back slowly though since a company called made in russia is importing new UAZ hunters
UAZ GANGGGGGG also not only an imported UAZ in the USA, but an imported trabi WAGON hiding under a car cover?? your friend must be living the life man omg
Growing up in Poland, there were a lot of them on the countryside, since it's a cheap off road vehicle, and I always wanted one. I got one 2 years ago and I still regret that I bought it, maybe it is a cheap to repair vehicle but Jesus it was a pain in the ass to maintain it and drive around. Nice vid btw, it's almost mint condition that UAZ.
@@nryn6023 bought a '94 Pajero before the UAZ and I still don't regret it, made 50k in it, still not a single work done to that car (not including maintenance), it's about the car, not the country mate
I also grew up in Poland and my father had two UAZes (well, 4 really, but 2 were just part donors to other 2). For what they were, these were great offroad vehicles. Lasted a long time. But maintenance was demanding and getting them to start in the winter was a challenge in itself. Still, they rode well offroad while being as uncomfortable as possible
One of the most fun cars that my dad has ever owned. He used to chauffeur a commander with it in Moscow back in the 80’s. He managed to find one with a military drivetrain (slower top speed and acceleration, but doesn’t fear anything off-road) that was kept in a garage for over 30 years, with only 3k on the odometer!
Our military still using these. I will never forget how I fucked something up during FTX, NCO in UAZ arrived , got out and then we chased a fucking UAZ because brakes didn't worked.
I bet that Soviet Utility vehicle would drive almost anywhere on earth, on or off road. It wouldn’t be comfortable, but it would do the job, and when it broke you could fix it with basic engineering supplies. In the developed world, soon internal combustion will be banned, and we can only have battery EVs. They won’t like cold, wet or being dirty. They won’t run more than a few hundred miles without connection to the grid. I’m starting to believe the Automobile WAS a wonderful thing.
