As a true communist and servant to the Socialist Republic of Vietnam you should know a Russian GAZ M-20 "Pobjeda" when you see one.

Oh, that Russian GAZ M-20 "Pobjeda", sorry i forgot, thats the old "Victory" model isnt it, if i remember correctly first seen on the market in 1946 and went through to the late 50's. Had a top speed of about 60mph if you were lucky. Oh them were the days comrade. hehe

Took me a long time to find this post but I am in Hai Duong which is about 50km outside of Hanoi on the road to Hai Phong. Also very vietnamese although allegedly we are being 'promoted' to a class 2 city (which means higher wages for the worker but nothing else as far as I can see)
