This Your Chance to Own a 1968 Moskvitch 408

The Moskvitch 408 is a well known Soviet-era car that was quite prolific throughout all of the Eastern Block countries, adjacent communist republics and some more developed countries too.

This 1968 model, for instance, was owned by a gentleman in Hungary and was imported into the US in September; it now resides in Miami, Florida, waiting for a new owner.

It’s engine is a 1.4-liter with 50 hp and it reportedly started right up after having sat since 1992 – all it needed was a carburetor cleaning and it was off…

As you probably know, most Soviet cars from the era were by no means technical marvels, but were renowned for durability and ease of repairs.

If you know what you’re getting yourself into, then by all means check out the eBay ad (Via BaT) where the current bid sits at $3,500, although the reserve has yet to be met.
