Today, it is considered an icon with fans and clubs all over the world. There are only a handful of them in the USA. Jay Leno has one in his collection: https:/ www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ozzlbrh6Tfc Vladimir Putin has two of them registered to his personal name and gave a ride in one of them to George W. Bush when he was visiting Russia during his presidency: http:/ www.standard.co.uk/news/standard-pictures/bush-and-putin-go-for-a-drive-7330996.html#gallery One Black GAZ 21 Volga was given to Yuri Gagarin after his orbital flight as a reward. Also, she appeared in numbers of Hollywood movies and music clips. The GAZ 21 Volga was produced in the Soviet Union from 1956 to 1970. The very first Volga was developed in the early 1950s. It was built with high ground clearance (which gives it a specific "high" look, contrary to "low-long-sleek" look of Western cars of similar design), rugged suspension, strong and forgiving engine, and rustproofing unheard of in the 1950s. Volga was stylistically in line with the major United States manufacturers of that period, and incorporated such then-luxury features as the reclining front seat, cigarette lighter, heater, windshield washer and 3-wave radio. Three series (generations) GAZ-21 were released, most easily distinguished by the grille. The First Series (1956–58), known as the Star , featured a lattice of three large horizontal bars in the center of which was a medallion with a star. Vehicles of the Second Series (1958-1962), known as the Shark , featured a grille with 16 vertical slits. Finally, the Third Series (1962-1970), known as the Baleen , featured a grille with 34 thin vertical rods. The Third Series was produced from 1962 to 1970. The 1962 models dropped the leaping deer hood ornament, and had a new grille. The headliner changed from cloth to vinyl, and the radio became optional. Volga Dvadtsat" Odin (Twenty One in Russian) was produced nearly as long as the Citroen DS , and played the same role in Russian automotive culture: a legend-on-wheels.
