From the heroes of the old times
No, sometimes, names.
Those who accepted the death fighting
Steel just land and grass ......

According to the already established tradition, new projects were preparing for the Victory Day. In past years, these were three Su-37 for group pilot.
This year, a new ZIS project was launched by Victory Day. With the flights, everything was not clear, allowed or not.
So, the car is a veteran ZIS 5B. The grandfather of our chief designer of this project during the WWN precisely on such a car went to victory. This is the memory of him and about other veterans of the Second World War.
In terms of events, it was that this model would take part in the Victory Parade on May 9 in College College where we are now based. We managed to prepare everything in less than a day before the events. In less than a day, it was decided to make a frame and awning in the body.

Solved for the scale of the project to use the finished chassis based on Baja on the scale of 1: 5.
Auto new, just running. The rear-wheel drive option was chosen, for its "stretching" under the future project.





The front part with electronics is disconnected from the frame. The frame is increased by a length of 50 cm. Wheels in diameter 25 cm.
The main problem was assembly of the frame and the manufacture of the wheels themselves or the use of already ready.








In winter, various options were considered, but they represented some difficulty, although they needed to look at the plan more copyino. But from this refused to favor finished products. The output was found to use with the revision of finished wheels from carts. So, 7 wheels are cooked. including One spare. On the sandpaper on the sides of the tires, the drawing is removed. The hubs are dismantled and on their place are made wooden under stock chambers for more convenient installation. The rear wheels are dual, with each other are connected by screws. Chamber wheels, all this is left as it is.
The frame from below is enhanced with aluminum corners. Top aluminum rail. The body and cabin will be attached to it.
From electronics, radiobox with a server steering moved forward as they were placed with a stock version. The braking actuator is left in stock location on a new attachment due to not changing settings for dismantling work and the collection of stock Baja.

Made drawings on 1: 1 scale. There is a car assembly on them.








We considered options for the manufacture of body, cabins from plywood, but due to more accurate conformity, it was decided to make from the rails, everything as in the original.

For compliance with the proportions, the model ZIS 5B is collected on 1:35.


It was according to it that the number of boards (relax) in each node was calculated. Thus, the body and cabin contain the same number of rails and boards as in this large-scale model. Dimensions are also observed.

Body boards, cabins are glued together. Wrapped into shield clamps and wedges. The body is separated by small copies - loops, canopies.
Cabin.
As in the original, it is made of boards (REC). The hood and roof will be made of tin. Ventilation ribs are made on the sidewalls.

Made steering wheel, sample seat as in a large-scale model.


Doors are also scored from the rails. Doors opening.


Local art school, (kids mug of artistic modeling), were engaged in the manufacture of driver and passenger. The driver was led by the photo of the grandfather of the main designer of this project.












To reduce the volume of the exhaust and the silencer from corrugations and the plugs of water pipes. In the barrel placed the mesh metallic.

The model turned out to be sufficiently heavy. The engine 26ss is a stock is weaker for her. In general, the task was to drive on a flat direct, on asphalt. What was fulfilled. The sound, smoke everything was as conceived.
The maximum detail and similarity with the prototype task was unshaven, but tried to be like.
Perhaps later alleged in the electro version. 50CC engine is weak for her.

Making model.

Rama running

Participation in the parade. In general, everything turned out as it was intended.

At the end of the parade, the model is exhibited for a photo shoot to everyone who has become plentifully, even in the queue became.









It was nice to listen to old people who told that on such trucks a chance to ride after the war, as well as those whose fathers, grandfathers went to the front and returned to such cars.

Several earlier we talked about, a brief historical reference was given and detailed photos of this truck were presented. Today I want to tell you about the construction of his model on a scale of 1:72 from the company "Elf".

ZIS-5 model review

If you first consider the set itself, you can confidently say that today, with a number of flaws, this is the best model of the ZIS-5 truck on a scale of 1:72. True, it is now very difficult to purchase it. First, a brief overview of the source material. The model represents the ZIS-5B car, it consists of seven small sprues, parts of the body platform, two parts of the frame, the parts of the wings and the foothold of the cab, glazing, rubber tires for the wheels, instructions. There are no decals in the set.

Malzing everything is very high quality, however, there are two small ducklings on the body platform. Wheels are very high quality, I hope who knows the products of the company "Elf", will understand what the headlights consist of several parts, including in reflectors.

Assembly of the ZIS-5 model

Let's turn to the assembly itself. With the first inspection, the minimum front work is immediately understood. Immediately, it drew attention is the grille grille. In the set it is very weak, it must be changed. In the photo above, it is clearly visible. I really did not like the wings, but I'm afraid, these are the costs of technology. Although, on the scale of 1:72, I saw more subtle and openwork elements, made much carefully. Well, the initial scope of work is determined, the rest will become clear along the way. Let's start with the radiator. From the plastic part I only left the edging, the rest cut out and from the inside chose engraver, to install a metal mesh. On the reverse side made an insert from the sheet polystyrene and paved two-component putty for Tamiya models. It turned out this item.

After assembled the engine hood. Since the lower part of the radiator lattice is less than it should be, it was necessary to increase it, according to the drawing and photo.

When preparing for work, I read the reviews of colleagues and describing the construction of models. There was noted that the rear wall of the cabin has a smaller than the width. When recalculating with the drawing and recalculate the size of 1:72, it became clear that it really is so, therefore, the item needs to be done again. I made it from sheet plastic. Due to the change in the rear wall width, it was re-made a roof, too, from a piece of polystyrene. When assembling a frame, it turned out that it is somewhat short, respectively, the axes of the wheels do not coincide with any drawing or overall dimensions. I had to build a frame, white inserts are visible in the photo. It also needed to sharpen drizzle from the sides.

During the dry bridge assembly, it was found that the frame was not parallel to the earth. I had to make the front springs to make substrates. In the photo they are visible from white plastic.

The next stage, as was supposed, turned out to be quite complicated - this is the manufacture of wings. When viewing photos, it turned out that there are several options for the execution of this node. I had to stay on one of them and think how to implement it in the metal. First, from the bottom of the bottom of the cabin, I cut off plastic wings.

Then from paper made patterns of wings, and after, from the copper foil, the plates of the desired shape made, and bent them in the right way. Then the side, the inner parts of the wings made the same principle.

It turned out not from the first attempt, but ultimately, we have such a result.

While all the nodes are dismantled, made from foil and copper wire headlight brackets.

In the same way made the door handles.

From copper foil, made brackets

Now, after the final assembly of the cab, body and a number of fittings, this is such an intermediate assembly of the entire model.

After, I made a body opening handle and collected headlight brackets. Then, again intermediate assembly with fitting.

Next, I made and painted the cockpit filling: the steering wheel, the speed switch lever, pedals, added some more little things. Now you can proceed to paint work. All the glass limited, along the contour, thin strips of Tamiya's tape and closed the Mr.Masking Sol from the Hansa.

For painting used paint Akan, color 4Bo. This ZIS-5B was made to the exhibition on May 9, the color was made at night, before the deadline. Due to the lack of time, the speech about tinting and washes has no longer walked. In the morning almost all the remaining elements were installed: headlights, muffler with exhaust pipe, wheels and all nodes are glued. In this form, the model was put up for the competition, where he ranked first, sharing it with a colleague on the nomination. According to the legend, the car has just sued the conveyor. Further, naturally, tinting, and the washes will be applied, glass will be cleared, there are a number of shortcomings. While the model lies, I can't find the state. Room on the back board and cab doors. In the meantime, a small video and gallery from the photo just painted work.

Video and gallery of the ZIS-5 model

In the Arkhangelsk region, on one of the islands of the White Sea, the miracle was preserved ZIS-5, abandoned there in the 60s due to the complete lack of roads. So we saw him.

The power unit turned out to be completely relatives, and the cutout in the engine shield did the driver who once traveled on this Zis in the winter. You need this neckline so that warm air from the collector go straight into the cab.

The cabin on this ZIS in the late 50s was replaced with a new Uralzis-355 car. This is said by the "late" bracket mounting of the steering column, torpedo without air intake tricks and characteristic flapping.

Rear axle with mechanical drive brakes, cardan shaft, brake thrust are preserved in very good condition. The body, naturally, was not preserved, but later we found its exact drawings.

Before the war, the bracket of the spare wheel was established from behind under the frame, which was extremely not convenient for operation. Since 1943, other brackets began to install on CIS-5V cars, they were attached under the body on the right side.

On the engine, the marking of the month and year of release is clearly visible - March 1941, which is confirmed by a similar casting on the collector. Wings are also in good condition, even the hood locks are preserved.

Even factory engine protection has been preserved on the car. Usually, such protection has not been preserved for two reasons: firstly, during operation, they strongly rust and rot, and secondly, if the engine was removed from the car, then these shields were usually no longer put into place.

Before pulling out the Zisa, it had to be abandoned from the snow and brushing the road.

Special thanks to the virtuoso tractorist of the fishing collective farm "Red Banner" Sergey Ivanovich. He very carefully pulled the ZIS from the far island to the Great Earth.

Behind the engine shield, the corresponding year, the production of cars, I had to go and the area of \u200b\u200bthe village of Luga Leningrad region. During the retreat in 1941, a lot of equipment was thrown in Leningrad to Leningrad, and so far you can find some zap. Parts. In the photo Pavlov Alexander Olegovich, an expert of the car ZIS-5. Thanks to his participation, our zises in the degree of restoration are some of the best in the world.

Since our zisa had no hood and many more details, we needed to find them somewhere. Vadim Igorevich Matveenko provided invaluable assistance in this - the chief "ideologist" of our project, the candidate of historical sciences, the author of the book "Forgotten and Famous".

Since pre-war zap. Parts It is possible to find only deep in the forest, I had to pull them out in this way.

The engine had to be seriously repaired and equipped with the missing link. parts.

The cabin is restored by factory drawings and previously found samples.

Body - wooden, made according to drawings and found metal elements. Stained in the same color as the cabin.

Castles, body loops and nuts are installed early type (until 1938). Such castles did not really like the chauffs - because of them, the boards were opened on the go, and subsequently were replaced by the castles of "American type", which are still installed on Russian trucks.

Generator 3-brush brand GBB-4600, a carburetor of the MCZ-6 sample of 1938, air filter Maaz-5, a fuel pump of an interesting design - the original "drill" of the motor.

The oil filter has a set of felt rings (you can cut out of the old boots, rinse and go further). ROSS-GIR type steering has passed the effort from the steering column to the rotary mechanism. A triangle with the inscription of the ZIS is visible on the engine block, and under it - the year of release.

A pump for pumping tires was installed on the gearbox and worked from its gears.

The drive shaft does not have elastic hinges. Both hinge - metal type "Spyer No. 500". Rear wheels have mechanical drum brakes with two pairs of pads, of which one is activated from the hand brake lever, and the other is from the brake pedal.

The drive of the front brakes is also mechanical. The front brakes are very rarely found on the ziras, they practically did not work and demanded constant adjustments. Many drivers just shot them and thrown away.

Difficulties with the restoration of the bracket of the spare wheel on the occurrence, and the hinge also had to get out of the forest.

Electrical equipment on our car 6-volt - original instrument shield with speedometer, pressure gauge, ammeter and quite difficult to repair the central light switch. The bottom of the starter button is visible.

The CPP of the ZIS car installed original, represents the modernization of the CPP of the company "Brown and Lip" with increased size of gears. The gasoline pot of 60 liters was under the driver's seat - the logic of designers to understand the modern person is difficult, because to refill it is necessary to open the door and remove the seat! Obviously, it was necessary so that the driver makes charging daily and did not smoke at the wheel.

Machine is ready for running tests. A set of native rubber of the brand I-1 size of 34x7 (corresponds to modern labeling 200x508) produced by the Leningrad Plant "Red Triangle" of 1938 of the release is established only at the exposure time. For running tests, more modern risen of the same size is used.

Kasymov Alim Jumanazarovich - chief engineer, technologist, motorist, aggregate, tinsmith, painter. There are no details in the car that did not visit the hands of this ingenious person.

The legend of the Soviet Auto industry, the truck ZIS-5 takes its beginning in 1933, when his predecessor AMO-3 was upgraded. Then I updated the power plant by increasing the engine power and, as a result, the car lifting capacity.

ZIS-5 possessed a very hardy engine. Another, very valuable feature of "Triumphons" was that almost all of its details had such proportions and the dimensions that they could not be damaged or broke even with the most gross and inept circulation. Much meant for the convenience of servicing and repairing the simplicity of the car. It consisted of only four and a half thousand parts, and its nodes could be disassembled and repairing with minimal use of special equipment and tools. "TriUchthon" turned out to be an indispensable machine for work in the then conditions. The engine easily started in cold weather, worked on any gasoline grade. The car was highlighted by good patency and won the sympathy of drivers. He honored the test of war with honor, was not upgraded more than once and was removed from production (his last version of the Ural-355M) only in 1963. Thus, if you keep an account from AMO-2, this one who has become almost a legendary truck was in production 33 years.

A lot of interesting pages of the biography of the Soviet Auto Grieve are connected with the ZIS-5 car. He was the first domestic car, which in 1936 began to buy abroad. When, in 1941, the fascists approached the capital, the Moscow plant had to be evacuated in several cities, and the simplified version of "Triumphons" (ZIS-5B, that is, wartime) was produced in the Urals Auto Plant. But the Moscow Plant already in 1942 resumed the production of the same trucks. During the war ZIS-5 war, hesitally drove guns and wounded, ammunition and food. He had a difficult service at the "Road of Life", which was running out of Leningrad's Ladoga on the ice besieged by the Nazis, passed through the frost and fire of Stalingrad, participated in the liberation of European countries from the fascist yoke.

Xi The size characterizes the tilt of the frame relative to the ground on the site between axes with a load of about 50 mm, without a load of about 140 mm. The frame drawing shows horizontal, and the land is inclined, for the convenience of removing the body size, the lines of which are parallel to the frame or are located to it at right angles.

Numerous models and their modifications were produced on the basis of Tri-Thongs. Among them, it is necessary to highlight the cars of increased passability - three, - half-sized and driven not only to the rear, but also on the front wheels. The first "Katyushi" were mounted on the three ZIS-6 chassis.

In parallel with the military branch, the branch of civilians developed. So, in 1933, an elongated ZIS-11 chassis appeared (it was used for fire cars), and after three years the production of gas generator machines began. The fuel for them was the gas obtained from wood chocks in gas generators. Based on the experience gained with these models, it was possible to create a ZIS-30 truck, the fuel for which liquefied methane or luminous gas was served. The calorific value of this fuel is significantly higher than that of the generator gas.

Over time, the engine "Triumphons" became more powerful (up to 85 hp), a hydraulic drive of the brakes appeared, in 1956 the car gained a rounded steering mechanism. Finally, from 1958 to 1963, "Ural-355m" was produced. It was distinguished by a all-metal cab of the GAZ-51 type, new wings, a lining of the radiator and the hood.

At the Moscow plant ZIS-5B lasted until 1946. Another truck - ZIS-150 came to replace him. He became a significant step forward. He had a five-speed gearbox, pneumatic brakes and many other constructive differences. On the basis of its aggregates, the ZIS-151 was produced with three leading axes, a truck tractor, dump truck, as well as cars operating on liquefied and compressed gas.

ZIS-150 - SIS-5 successor on a pedestal in Ivanteevka near Moscow

The large family of ZIS trucks gave rise to two more related lines. In 1951, the production of "Zisov" saddle tractors and dump trucks began in Kutaisi. Almost simultaneously, the Mytishchi Machine-Building Plant began to build the chassis on the basis of the chassis obtained from the ZIS, dump trucks and road trains with saddle tractors. In the mid-fifties, ZIS-150 appeared new "relatives": trucks in China and Romania were built according to its sample.

In 1957, ZIS-150 has undergone indigenous modernization, after which the car received an index 164, and in the future - 164a and 164ar. Externally, these cars differed slightly from the ZIS-150, but possessed more power engines and improved units. Since in 1956 the plant was assigned the name I.A. Likhacheva, who has been his director for a long time, then all the models received the designation "ZIL". The ZIL-157 came to the ZIS-151 change, equipped with single-sided wheels and a centralized air pressure control system in tires.

By 1965, the Likhachev's auto station created a completely new basic model of a truck. She gave rise to the fourth generation of trucks of this enterprise. The first, whose hence was AMO-F15, existed for seven years. The second, which began with AMO-2 and gained development in the ZIS-5, as we already know, covered three decades. The post-war generation of ZIS-150, the third on the score, has numbered almost twenty years. It retained according to the most important motor-engine - continuity from the ZIS-5 and even from the "car"; Inch dimensions of many parts are preserved, for example, starting with AMO-2 and up to ZIL-164A, but the size of the piston move - 114.3 mm, that is, exactly 41/2 inches. Despite numerous improvements, this engine is outdated by 1965. The transition to the new inevitably demanded the reconstruction of other nodes, the entire car. And in 1965, the conveyor rose ZIL-130 with a topless eight-cylinder engine. Along with this model, its modifications were produced - 130g with an extended base, the truck tractor 130V1, the dump truck MMZ-555g, the ZIL-131 car striking the leading axes.

The Ural Avtozavod prepared at the beginning of the 1960s to replace the "Triumphon" a three-way model of increased passability - "Ural-375". It also produces a truck tractor and a road truck. The engines installed on them are manufactured on zil and the same type with engine models of ZIL-130 and ZIL-131.

ZIS-6 is distinguished by the presence of a third axis and a slightly enlarged radiator. At the half-sized ZIS-22, ZIS-42 instead of the rear wheels - caterpillars, the ZIS-10 tractor instead of the platform - a supporting device. On the car of the pre-release (before the evacuation of the plant in Ulyanovsk and the Urals) there was no vision to the cabin, a buffer and front brakes, the splashes of the footboard was shortened.

CABIN ZIS-5B (and all its modifications of military and post-war times) are trimmed with wooden slats, the so-called "clapboard"; Stamped wings are replaced with angular welded, and steel hinges platform-diadened racks; A significant part of the cars was produced with one (left) headlamp, which was equipped with a light disco.

External details of the main model ZIS-5 do not require special explanations - they are visible in the drawing. One should only draw the attention of the model store to the new roof cover (differing in color and texture from the painting of the entire cab), the lack of horizontal fire on the site between the hood and door, the rifle of the footboard, protruding the hub of the steering wheel with two tales on it. Characteristic tire tread pattern with protrusions moving on the sidewalls. Simple forms of the engine and other mechanisms (this is for those modelists who want to perform a hood by opening, as well as show the chassis details below) schematically in the drawing. Inside the cab Do not forget the wooden window sills of doors and rails on the ceiling. The rear lamp is single, is on the left.

Cars ZIS-5 were painted most often in bright protective-green color, including the lining of the radiator and the wings. Wheels, frame and all chassis mechanisms, as well as headlights (except chrome rods) were black. Machines intended for exports were stained in a beige color, and the lining of the radiator, the headlight housing, the buffer and wheeled nuts were chromed.

The archive has a complete set of drawings on the onboard car ZIS-5 sample 1939-1941, on CIS-5V CRP cars. 1942 and 1943, as well as additions to later constructive changes, including the ZIS-50 model. There are drawings of the military versions of the ZIS-5 with universal bodies (ZIS-5A). There are also drawings on the gas-plane modification of the ZIS-5, as well as on gas generator options for ZIS-21, ZIS-41, army all-terrain vehicles ZIS-22 and ZIS-42, all-wheel drive vehicle ZIS-32. On the truck tractor there are only the drawings of the semi-trailer PP-6. Drawings on the lengthy options (ZIS-11, ZIS-12, ZIS-14) in the archive. The ZIS-6 car has 50% of the drawings.

Three-tont car, modernization of car AMO-2 and AMO-3, which in turn were an adapted model of the American truck AutoCar SA. The car was produced at the ZIS in 1933-1941, as well as at the Ulzis and in Uralzis, where since 1950 it is transformed into the Ural Variants of the ZIS (ZIS-5M, ULZIS-355), and will last in production before the early 60s. During the war, the car was manufactured in a simplified version, after the War I left a wooden cabin and bent wings.

The ZIS-5 car is also known for the fact that on its basis a record number of modifications in the history of world automotive industry was built: all-terrain vehicles, buses, dump trucks, vans, construction and road vehicles. Car options on the ZIS-5 chassis for some estimates reaches thousands of pieces.
