The fact is I was first not sure as I should continue the work or not but I have new desidet to the the matter in my own hands.

Back to ZIL talks:
I was once asked whats the difference among Soviet car. In the old days they us to say that 6 people would drive in a [[ZAZ 965]] and only one person in a [[GAZ 21]] Volga.
But then dose that apply to ZIL(refered here as ZIL 111) cars, I wondered.
As I look back some of the old posts in this forum, ZIL was a parade car(limousine) but as I look at some pictures usually there are
2-4 persons in one car. So how dose it comes to that?
First off let us not forget the political elite of the Soviet union had there own guards placed near them in case of a emergency. On a larger parade where the first secretary of the Communist party(leader of the Soviet union) would be present, the ZIL car was acompanyed by [[GAZ 13]] and [[GAZ 23]].
Its not coinsidental but if you leave out the risk of been stalked by assasins and security issues there is a more different reason. But heres where the readers can say there thoughts.
