Thanks for corrections to Florian Soava and Dorin from Bucharest.
ZIS-151 substituted Studebaker-US6 in Soviet army. In early 1948 cabins were wooden, what communicated them angular shape. In 1958 ZIS-151 model was substituted by ZIL-157, differed outwardly by grille and by single track rear wheels instead of twin wheels of 151.
