Sergei Mironovich Kirov (born Sergei Mironovich Kostrikov), 27 March 1886 – 1 December 1934, was a Soviet politician and Bolshevik revolutionary whose assassination led to the first Great Purge ... Kirov had shortened his last name from Kostrikov to Kirov, a practice common among Russian revolutionaries of the time. Kirov began using the pen name "Kir"... acc. to Wikipedia.
He wasn't the only one Russian revolutionist, who preferred a short name but a long car.
Dark hubcaps, even a dark radiator grill(?) - doubtless an impressive Packard.
