Raul1983 ◊ 2009-03-15 22:29	Nice! Rare make I believe.

However most of them had the simple cabine of the type KO-1A, "a few" KO-1 (between the 1959 and 1962, the production still wasn't very big) and only one(!) the KO-2 - this one from the pics above. AFAIK it didn't survive to our times, so the pics are rather historical. -- Last edit: 2009-03-16 18:41:39

Weasel1984 ◊ 2012-09-26 18:33	It was introduced in fall 1962 (october) acc. to the best books about the JZS history of W. Połomski. For such prototypes - "model year" system doesn't make any sense. The linked site, which used my screencaps, is wrong
