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 hisorbital flight as a reward. Also, she appeared in numbers ofHollywood movies and music clips. The GAZ 21 Volga was produced in the Soviet Union from1956 to 1970. The very first Volga was developed in the early 1950s. It wasbuilt with high ground clearance (which gives it a specific "high"look, contrary to "low-long-sleek" look of Western cars of similardesign), rugged suspension, strong and forgiving engine, and rustproofingunheard of in the 1950s.Volga was stylistically in line with the major United States manufacturersof that period, and incorporated such then-luxury features as the recliningfront 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 thecenter 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 wasproduced from 1962 to 1970. The 1962 models dropped the leaping deer hoodornament, and had a new grille. The headliner changed fromcloth 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 samerole in Russian automotive culture: a legend-on-wheels.
