Eastern European Eccentricities

Postby KiwiCarFreak » Thu May 17, 2012 10:02 am

Hi all,
Found these on Flickr (another site/forum I frequent). I've always had an interest in Soviet/Eastern European cars, and in terms of epic finds, these top all else!

Imagine finding this in a barn - a V-reg Polski Fiat FSO 125p PICKUP!

And now something even better than that - an actual UK-sold Romanian A.R.O 4x4!

I think that A.R.O is owned by Eastern European car connoisseur Sam Glover. Could you edit the post to include the images? All you have to do is copy the link on the 'share' drop down above the photo.

Here's another, hanging A.R.O in Aberdeenshire.

I can't seem to post the photos here. I've tried everything - or am I just doing it wrong??

I've edited your post so they show up.

If you go to the flickr page for each photo and click "share" just above the photo in the middle, a little drop dow box will appear. Select "grab the htlm/bcode" from there, and the BBcode button, and then copy and paste all the text in the text box into here and it will put the photo up with a nice link to the flickr album.

The Polski pickup belongs to an AS member if memory serves.
