Enter the 1977 Chaika, a Soviet-era limousine developed by GAZ (Gorkovsky Avtomobilny Zavod). Exclusively made for the mid-level officials of the Soviet Union, it was limited to only 1,114 units. In Brussels, the Chaika was first introduced in 1958 as the GAZ-13 model. However, the model you are witnessing is the second-gen GAZ-14, which is more updated and hosts more electronics than the previous iteration. Thanks to Dominykas Liberis, the rendering of this magnificent vintage limousine indeed takes us back to 1977.

Built from 1977 to 1988, the second-gen Chaika was a slightly toned-down version of luxury limos from ZiL. The Chaika was heavily inspired by western cars, especially the Packard Caribbean and the Packard Patrician. It was powered by a big 5.5-liter naturally aspirated V-8 with a 207 horsepower rating. Power is sent to the rear wheels via a three-speed automatic gearbox.

Just like the production-spec vehicle, the rendered Chaika has a quad headlight setup with two foglights below them. The rectangular mesh grilles have a GAZ logo and the Chaika branding on the lower left side. The rearview mirrors are placed on the bonnet, a typical vintage limousine design. The Chaika looks extensive from the sides, which is evident because of the 135.8-inch wheelbase and a whopping 241 inches in length. The rear has a long boot with squared-off taillights, and there's a more prominent Chaika branding on the right.

As a four-door luxury car, the Chaika offered top-class interior build quality, and that has been portrayed through the rendered photos. The dashboard, door panels, and the center console are made of wood and genuine leather. The center console houses a drive selector and many buttons to control the radio. In addition, the steering wheel is a massive chunk of leather and frames the analog meters. All the seats have a cushioned headrest, are fully upholstered in leather, and look gorgeous in brown.
