Actually it looks like a derivative of a 55 or 56 Packard. Russian limos
from the 40s through to the 50s all were Packard copies. It was rumored that during WWII, FDR had the tooling and body dies for the 42 Senior Series Packards shipped off to Stalin because he admired Packards.

Too bad there's a little piece of chrome missing from the left side
moulding. I have a 1:43 scale model of this car and coincidentally it also has a section of chrome missing from one side. Maybe that's how they came from the factory after all.

I would say that, but nobody else would stoop to those depths of bad humour.....!
