The ZIS-110 is a Soviet limousine produced by ZIL from 1946 to 1958. The 110 was developed from the reverse engineering of a 1942 Packard Super Eight [1] during 1944. The first five prototypes were completed by August 1945.

The ZIS-151 was the first major Soviet military all-wheel-drive truck built following World War II, replacing the imported U.S. Studebaker US6 and the earlier Soviet ZIS-6. In early 1948, the cabs were made of wood, soon replaced with a steel cab.

In 1957, the base ZIS-150 model was replaced by ZIL-164, which differed outwardly only by vertical grille bars and bumper. Already at the end of the 1930s, the ZIS-5 truck (ЗИС-5) was to be replaced by a modern design.

Trucks were sold under all three names, but cars were built only under the names of ZIS and ZIL. These were all large, exclusive cars - never less than eight cylinders - and always tipping the scales at around 2½ tons.

The ZIS (Later ZIL) 151 was the first Soviet Army Postwar Medium Truck, a general-purpose model based on the ZIS-6 and lend-lease Studebaker US6. It was developed in many versions included the armored BTR-152 armored personnel carrier and BAV 485 amphibious vehicle

Jan 26, 2016 · This 1947 ZIL ZIS-110 (chassis 253 of 2,038) is an early, second model year example of the Russian reverse-engineered Packard. Commissioned by Stalin, the cars were hand-built at a rate of less than 200 a year, and production ended in 1958.

The ZIL MMZ-555 was a dump truck for construction sites and quarries, and handled bulk and semi-liquid loads quickly on difficult sites, being notably manoeuvrable. The ZIL 131 and 131A models had three-axle, six-wheel drive and are designed for cross-country work in particularly difficult conditions.

The firm specialised in building limousines for the Soviet government, with the name changing in 1958 to ZIL (Zavod Imjeni Likchacev), after its director Ivan Likchacev.
