[Cz-L] Opel Kadett

http://pics.livejournal.com/whasup/pic/00ker2t4

  This is the famous Opel Kadett somewhere in Czernowitz.
   The Kadett was the most popular car in Europe before the war.
    After victory the Soviets demanded , as war reparations ,
    the Braunschweig production line of the Kadett, to be transferred to
Moscow.
    To facilitate this they laid wide-gauge rail lines deep into Germany
     to fit the Russian rail.
     In 1947 they came out with the Moskwitch 400 , identical to the Opel.
      What you see here is one of them in Czernowitz.
     The directional signal lights on the fenders are additions
        by the inventive owner.
