Are the colours authentic? It seems a bit gaudy for a Bolshevik. A nice model though, if I played in 1/72 I'd definately have to have one (though I'd re paint it)

And you think that the Bolsheviks were painting everything we could exclusively in red? 

Here's a photo this car. It stands in one of the Moscow museums.



Such cars were used in the Russian army.

HI Guys:  Based on the information I had when the kit was designed,  the colors of the model were accurate for the period of time it was in use by Lenin.   

I do appreciate Cuprum's photos.  They are very interesting.   

Thanks ever so much.
