Hi all! My name is Ivan and i'm here to show you my ride and some of our club rides. I were very inspired by VW restocals and decided to make something like it but using our russian volks wagen - Lada. I bought mine about 3 years ago. It was in good condition and 100% og with og paint etc. I started with some technical works:changed oil, spark plugs and many other things. Cleaned exterior and interior, changed shocks and springs. As it must be resto ride it must be lowered. So springs was cutted. I lowered it for about 15 cm. At the moment it has about 5 cm clearence under front beam. I puted the fresh repainted roofrack, whitewalls, custom painted rims, headlight stoneguards and some other accessories. It has 155/65R13 up front and 175/60R13 out back. Some engine parts was repainted. And here pics of how it looks at the moment    Pics without roofrack  Our club sticker  Hope you'll like it. Ivan. |

We have 4 cars in our club at the moment. Here the other member's cars: 1974 Lada 1200 Wagon (2102, one of the lowest lada in our country)   I used old made in ussr light alloy wheels, but detailed it before installation. 1980 Lada 1500 (2103)   and 1980 Lada 1200 (2101, late model)   Each car has it's own name: mine is D'olive, 2102 is Cioccolato, 2103 is Violetta and orange 2101 is Carota. Ivan. |

 it doesn't matter if it's a Morris Marina or a Toyota Celica - it's what you do with it that counts  |

Brilliant! I think the green Lada has appeared on this forum a couple of times before. I'm not a massive fan of roof racks, but it looks real sweet on the green one! Welcome to the forum!  |

Those are awesome. Are you actually based in Russia? All the Russian modified cars I've ever seen have had considerably less class than yours!

Everyone knows I love Ladas, but these are easily the best I've ever seen. If only we had more 2101/2102/2103 left in this country!
