A car produced during the middle of developed socialism can rightly be called a masterpiece. It attracts attention among the general flow of cars in the modern metropolis. We are talking about the Volga GAZ 21. The exterior of most Soviet cars did not differ in sophistication and originality. Namely, this vehicle instantly became popular among motorists of the USSR.
It's safe to say that of the entire galaxy of Soviet-era cars, the Volga GAZ 21 occupied its own special niche, distinguished by its rounded shapes, perfect wings, and a successful combination of curved and flat windows. In the realities of our time, this car occupies a worthy place among the retro cars of not only the domestic, but the global automotive industry. Having acquired the Volga on the occasion, its owner is trying to bring its interior and exterior back to its original form. And someone goes further and begins to improve the GAZ 21, the tuning of which can be expensive.
Many, while restoring the Volga GAZ 21 car, try to do tuning, affecting only the appearance of the car, while maintainingpristine technical equipment of the machine. At one time, the car was produced in a wide color palette, which amounted to more than 160 color shades, but in terms of their depth and richness of color, they, of course, are much inferior to modern automotive paint and varnish products. Painting the car today in one of the bright rainbow colors will allow you to see it in a new light, the car will simply sparkle with new colors.
When restoring the GAZ 21, as a rule, no one does the tuning of the instrument panel. The beauty of restoring a retro car is to leave it intact. All work on tuning the dashboard comes down to giving a color shade in the same tone with the body, which allows you to make the interior memorable, bright.
Working on the interior of the GAZ 21, a lot of people do interior tuning. Upholstery in leather allows you to change the atmosphere of the cabin, giving it elegance and presentability. Having upholstered door linings and rear sides in the same color scheme as the interior, the owner of the car will give its internal appearance a picture of the integrity and completeness of the created interior.
Technical improvement of the GAZ 21, engine tuning come down to installing a power unit from the GAZ 24 car, which was the next in the line of models of the Gorky Automobile Plant. Installing the engine from the "big brother" does not cause practically any problems, since the engine compartment is quite enough for this. Installing the engine from the 24th model is accompanied by replacing the gearbox withadvanced unit of the older generation. Such tuning of the GAZ 21 with your own hands will allow you to disperse the car already up to 140 km / h. Tuning GAZ 21 also affects the replacement of the rear axle. Modernization is carried out by installing a rear axle from Volvo, which is distinguished by its low noise and reliability.
As practice shows, the installation of spoilers, overlays and body kits can only harm the elegant silhouette of the car.
