Identify this vehicle?
Permalink   

I am grateful to a friend for showing me this picture. Until I know what it is, I don't know what category to put it in. Doesn't ring a bell with me, but sorry if it's a well-known one. It's rather Vezdekhod-ish.

Eugene Sautin posted that image (flipped horizontally) way back in 2005:

It is supposed to be the vezdekhod.

Note that every other reproduction shows it facing the other way to yours.

Thank you, Mr. Todd. Have I told you that my short term memory isn't so good these days?

Same here, and my long-term memory's not too clever either. As for my medium-term memory, I can't remember whether it's any good or not.

It's a nice idea, especially that variant with a turret. Without it, I'd say that you might kill the enemy... of laughter.
Makes a cool ride for kids too.

I think there are holes in the bottom so the driver can scoot it along with his feet whilst making brummm! brummmm! noises...
