Abandoned UAZ-452 (1)

            A very rusty UAZ-452 -series panel van sits abandoned and neglected, rotting on waste land on the Ionian island of Kefalonia, Greece. Quite an iconic vehicle, the UAZ-452 was originally built from 1965 through 1985, and this forlorn example looks to be from that original period, manufactured in the former USSR. The UAZ is still in production to this very day, now known as the UAZ-3742, still being produced by ‘Ulyanovsky Avtomobilny Zavod’. Although Greece has always been considered part of “the west”, vehicles form all over the world have been imported to this country, including some from the former Soviet Union.

This example looks as if someone has taken a tin opener to the roof, peeled open like a sardine tin. Did they want a cabriolet, or were the doors rusted shut(?)
