Old GAZ-66 turned into a huge pickup in American style

In this monster, the GAZ-66 is not immediately recognized – if only because its cabin is taken from the ZIL-131. It’s hard to believe, but the pickup was built to clear roads in the village from snow. Old GAZ-66 turned into a huge pickup in American style

The huge pickup was built by master Sergey Vinogradov from Vitebsk, Belarus. The frame chassis of the GAZ-66 was fitted with two cabins and a hood from the ZIL-131, as well as a body from the SsangYong Actyon Sports. Massive steel bumpers, a vertical exhaust, and huge wheels from an HTZ tractor were also added.

The axles, transfer case, and all-wheel drive transmission remained from the GAZ-66, but the MMZ D-245 engine was removed from the ZIL “Bychok”. The pickup can reach about 90 km/h and consumes 20 l/100 km. Of course, in terms of dynamics, it is far from the ZIL Akademik, but this beast looks bright.
