Old Hunchback Zaporozhets Evacuated Ukrainians from Besieged Mariupol

The hunchbacked ZAZ-965 from 1962 saved the lives of an elderly couple from Mariupol. Ukrainians managed to escape from true hell in an old Zaporozhets.

Blogger Roma Urraco uncovered the interesting story. It turned out that they are the first and only owners of the ZAZ-965, meaning the car has been in one set of hands for 60 years.

The Zaporozhets bears bullet marks, has no windows, and the Russians have already managed to paint a Z symbol on the back. Nevertheless, the car did not fail and evacuated its owners to a safe place.

Earlier, TopZhyr wrote about a Ukrainian who managed to evacuate to Germany in a Tavria. The ZAZ covered 2250 km without issues and is now up for sale.
