ZiL-164

ZiL-164 is a Soviet medium-tonnage truck produced by the Likhachev Plant. The model is a modernization of the ZiS-150 – its individual components and assemblies. It was produced from October 1957 to December 1964.

Since December 1961, the ZiL-164A car was produced – a transitional model from the ZiL-164 to the ZiL-130.

For many years, ZiL-164 and ZiL-164A trucks were “workhorses” in almost all motor vehicles of the USSR. On their basis, specialized factories produced large quantities of vans, tankers, tanks, fire engines, truck cranes and many other types of special equipment.

A number of components from the promising ZiL-130 model were introduced into the ZiL-164A design (clutch, gearbox, parking brake, new universal joint support, combined brake valve). Acceptance tests of the ZiL-164A family of trucks took place in 1960, and they entered the assembly line in October 1961.
