The legendary ZIL 130 model can be talked about for hours. It all began in the post-war years, when the Soviet Union needed equipment for agricultural needs. This Soviet and later Russian car came to replace the old model ZIL-164, which was initially produced as ZIS-150. Before the model became the same as we know it, there were a lot of changes in it. Before the restructuring of the Stalin plant, the model was produced as ZIS-125.
As a product of the Likhachev plant it was produced in the period from 1962 to 2010. Initially, the assembly was carried out in Moscow, but in the 90s the capacities were transferred to Novouralsk. There the car was produced under another name - the Amur. It is noteworthy that the ZIL-130 became the first truck of its kind, which began to be painted white and blue. Before that, all ZILs were painted khaki because they were made for military purposes. The whole model range is ZIL.
APPEARANCE
The omnipresent versions of the ZIL trucks were extremely rare and raw. The excuse is weighty, it took a lot of machinery to compensate for the damage after the war. But in the end, already in 1956 the prototypes were much more beautiful than their predecessors.
After a number of changes, which concerned both the restyling of the truck and the plant itself, the ZIL-130 was presented at the annual international fair in Leipzig, where it received a gold medal, and engineers received many diplomas. Since then, the “130” model has been gaining unprecedented popularity.
The fact is that ZIL dump trucks had a lot of modifications. The most used of them were semi-trailers and articulated haulers. The most significant modifications were made in 1966 and 1977. On the basis of the usual “one hundred and thirtieth”, fire-fighting vehicles and cranes, tankers and vans, flatbed trucks and construction dump trucks were created. The truck is effective even in cramped urban conditions due to the turning radius of up to 7 meters. With a payload of only 3 tons, the ZIL-130 weighs at least 4 tons.

At the same time, it can be used to tow a trailer weighing no more than 8 tonnes. On the outside, the Russian truck looked very good for that time. The truck was able to attract attention to itself. It was painted white and blue. Before the ZIL-130, all the automotive companies worked only on the defense and army spectrum, based on this, the car had a protective coloring. The hood had an alligator type. ZIL received streamlined wings, panoramic windshield.
