...THat car was made for traveling into eastern Russia.

Keith (PackardV8), it is an inspection car of that kind, Dave (clipper47) described. It drove into every of the four cardinal directions but through Hungary instead of the Soviet Union. The distance from Hungary to Siberia is pretty much the same as the distance from Hungary to Alaska.

I thought that too but it has teeny rubber buffers at the rear, plugged into the exhaust openings. What looks like solid steel buffers at the front is nothing else than the license plate holder.
