Impressions from Vietnam and Cambodia
Published 09/12/2012 @ 12:10:48, By ingo
Again a plenty of pics, incl. a lot of "made for IMCDb-fellow" ones, so I'll go on step-by-step to contribute them here.

At first something for André Malraux. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ho_Chi_Minh was a Peugeot 404-user, too.

Otherwise there were no cars from the French time left, nothing. In the late 80ies there was an article in my classic car magazine, that a trip to Vietnam is worth for fans, whoch want to see clasic French cars from the 50ies an older still in daily use. Nowadays you only can find them a wooden models

Sorry, I have absolutely no idea, in which connection the coffee-version stands to annother IMCDB-ist :whistle:

Decoration in a restaurant in Hoi An. As our guide have said, nearly all mopeds and scooters, which appear in Vietnam, are locally assembled.

A few vehicles from the times, when the old friends USSR and DDR were alive, are still doing their daily work. I've seen more, as a plenty of Kamaz-trucks, a few MAZ-trucks, more IFA W50 and one IFA W60, also a Multicar, but my snapshooting-tries out of the running bus, failed or I had no chance for a reaction.

More coming soon. It's a terrible work to sort the pics. My wife and me have made over 1700 photos, which my PC had uploaded in a muddle.

That is indeed very interesting, thanks! :beer: I had no idea that Ho Chi Minh used a Peugeot 404. :wam: The Pobeda and the ZiS are also very intersting. :grinking:

I guess those first two Jeeps are locally made? The first one looks quite strange. You should have found out what they were in case we get some in some Cambodian/Vietnamese scenes in the database. :lol:

I think the yellow one is a Dalat, made by Citroën in South Vietnam from 1970 until 1975.

@rjluna2: there is still a plenty of lighting-related pics. My ImageShack-capacity is not endless and I'm unable to open a Flickr-page, so would it be o.k. for you, if I can send them by email to you, for your lighting-forum?


Sure thing, ingo. See my PM :wink:

When I took the pics -annother one I've spotted shortly before-

I thought, we had discussed about it a time agon in the database. Hadn't DynaMike digged out the informations about it?

In Southern Vietnam I've spotted four former US Army-trucks from the wartime, which are now in civil use. Unfortunately I could catch only one with the camera:

The others were in use on a big roadwork-site, one watertank-truck and two gravel-skip truck - both REO's

At the site of the Cu Chi Vietcong-tunnels:

You have to be tricky with making your pics in a way, that the viewer may think, you have discovered the place in the Indiana Jones-style...
