Zuk A-15 "Pompieri" - (1967) - DeAgostini/IST Models

       Zuk A-15, care in poloneza inseamna "gandac", a a fost o duba (furgoneta) produsa de FSC (Fabryka Samochodów Ciężarowych) in Polonia intre 1958-1998. A fost construit pe sasiul, suspensia si motorul de la Warszawa M20. Aceasta, la randul ei, era de fapt rusoaica GAZ Pobeda produsa sub licenta in Polonia. Zuk si Nysa, bazata pe acelasi sasiu, au fost singurele furgonete din Polonia comunista. Zuk a fost in principal vandut organizatiilor de stat dar si unor persoane private. Pe toata perioada productiei, design-ul s-a schimbat doar la nivelul fetei, in 1967. Posta poloneza si Pompierii au fost principalii utilizatori, Zuk fiind folosit ca masina de pompieri mai ales in micile comunitati.

       Macheta este produsa de IST Models, pt DeAgostini. Este al doilea numar special al colectiei, destul de rar la ora actuala. Este o macheta reusita, fara erori majore.

La interior totul este negru, fara decaluri pt instrumente dar replicat corect. Stergatoarele sunt mai bine realizate decat la alte machete DeAgostini.

       Zuk A-15, which in Polish means "bug", was a van produced by FSC (Fabryka Samochodów Ciężarowych) in Poland between 1958-1998. It was based on the Warsawa M20 chassis. Zuk and Nysa, based on the same chassis, were the only vans produced in the communist Poland. Zuk was mainly sold to state organizations and a few to private persons. During its production period, the design changed only slightly on the front part, in 1967. Polish mail service and the Firefighters were the main users of the angular Zuk. Was used as a firetruck in the small communities.

       The scale model, is produced by IST Models, for DeAgostini. It's the second special issue of the collection, quite rare. It's a well made model, without major errors. Only the mirrors are a little crooked. The windscreen gasket is black but the others are not painted. On the roof there are the fire-hoses and ladders, very good replicated. All the interior is black, with no decals. The wipers are better than other DeAgostini models.
