Hi All
Marius I think one like this will be useful on the farm.
They were converted by a company in NZ. Bought brand new, got fitted with a Toyota 2LT engine, dont know about the gearbox and the back was fitted with the drop sides.

Here is another pic of the Niva based buggy being tested by the Russian Army. The one posted by Darryn was not adopted by the Russians. The guy behind the wheel is quite a legend in his own country - he is a special forces paratrooper known as Lebed. The light tank behind him is also a new addition to the Russian Airborne Forces (VDV). Attachments:

I wonder where I can get an exhaust manifold like that? Or, who can make one, and, is it expensive to do?

Darryn you can buy one from Mike now. I think it will look the same. Then you can just have it powdercoated.

Charles that is a custom manifold the ones i make are as the standard. to make that i would have to play around alot. power coating looks good or you can use high heat special manifold spraypaint. wich i can spray on order. colours BLUE, BLACK, WHITE, GREY. AND NOT SURE BUT POSSIBLY ORANGE AS WELL BUT THEY WILL BE ALL MATT COLOUR. MY ENGINE ON MY LADA HAS HAD IT NOW SO I WILL BE REBUILDING AND PAINTING IT LIKE NEW VERY SOON.
