Rare 1975 VAZ Car Paint Color Recreated by Ukrainian Expert

A time capsule of color: Ukrainian auto paint expert recreates a rare 1975 VAZ shade. Ukraine's automotive history is rich with unique details often overlooked. One such detail is the 'Olive 340' paint color used on VAZ cars in 1975. This shade, a vibrant yellow-green, disappeared in 1985 due to pigment shortages. However, a Ukrainian auto paint expert, known only as BYTSAN, has successfully recreated the formula. "We found the formula and a rare pigment," BYTSAN states in their recent video. This achievement is more than just a restoration project; it represents a connection to Ukraine's automotive past and the ingenuity of its artisans. BYTSAN's work demonstrates the passion for preserving automotive heritage and the potential for reviving lost automotive colors.
