It is hard to imagine that the Giss 150, which was widely used in China in the 1950s, can still be seen today. Although the Gis 150 is very dilapidated, it is exciting to see such an old car with a history. The Guise 150 from the Stalin Automobile Plant in Moscow, using the Soviet Union, is a prototype of the domestically produced Liberation CA10, which has a similar appearance and similar performance, and many parts are interchangeable. The Gies 150 was also printed on a penny note in the mainland's second set of renminbi, making it widely known for its shape.
Gies 150 truck is a Soviet Post-World War II mass production of 4-ton truck, its shape is basically from the United States production of the IWC KR-11 type car, but is not a complete imitation of the IWAC car, but combined with the Giess's own situation design and production of products. The design of the Gies 150 began in 1943, the first prototype was produced in January 1944, the second prototype was produced in early 1945, and the third prototype was produced in 1947. On October 30, 1947, the Guise 150 began to leave the factory, and by the end of the year a total of 144 units were produced. On January 27, 1948, the Stalin Automobile Factory began to set up a production line for new models, and by April 26, 1948, the new Model Gies 150 and the old Model Gies 50 were being produced in parallel, until the next day, April 27, the Gies 50 was discontinued, and the production line was fully converted to the Gies 150.
After the mass production of the Gies 150, it is also constantly improving, both in terms of appearance, cab materials, as well as the engine and chassis. Some friends may find that the Gis 150 turn signal on the 1953 penny note is above the fender plate, and the Gis 150 turn signal produced after August 1953 is changed to the side of the headlight, which is basically the same as the liberation CA10.
The front face of the Guise 150 is very similar to the Liberation CA10

Exteriorally the edge of the Wheelhouse produced in late 1947 to 1949 is straight (this iron-wood hybrid cab of the Gis 150 also came to China). The Gis 150, produced from mid-1949 to November 1949, featured an all-metal cab, but the hinges were not visible from the driver's windows. From December 1949 to July 1950, the Guise 150 was produced, and the hinge began to be installed on the window in the driver's direction, and the driver could push the windshield ventilation, at which time the ventilation slot on the side of the Guise 150 cover produced was opened inward. The ventilation grooves on the sides of the Guise 150 cover, which were produced from August 1950 to the first half of 1953, were opened outwards, and stamping marks were added underneath. The Giss 150 turn signals, which were produced from August 1953 to June 1956, were changed to headlights.
The shape of the bumper is basically the same as that of the Liberation CA10, and the curved edge will only appear on the Gill 150 bumper produced in later batches.
On June 26, 1956 the Stalin Automobile Factory was renamed the Likhachev Automobile Factory, and in August 1956 the Gis 150 was renamed the Gil 150. The Gill 150, which was produced from July 1956 to the first half of 1957, was renamed Gil. In the first half of 1957, the Jill 150 bumper, which was discontinued, appeared to have a circular edge. Of course, the overall improvement of the model is far more complicated than the improvement of the appearance, and the painstaking efforts of countless auto workers have been integrated into the places we cannot notice.
The rear of the car
Above the fuel tank is the carriage, and the picture can be seen that the shape of the fuel tank is different from the ordinary Gies 150.
In the picture, it is a square cabin car modified from the Gies 150 chassis, which has different functions and shapes. The car's exterior has also been altered, and it can be seen that the ventilation slot on the side of its cover is opened inward, which is the same structure as the old car, but its turn signals are installed next to the headlights like the new car. Obviously, this is the result of the later replacement of different batches of exterior parts, and several steel rings used on the car have also been replaced by the steel rings of domestic cars, but the overall shape of the Giss 150 model car is still maintained.

The ordinary Giss 150 truck adopts 4×2 drive form, the vehicle size is 6720× 2470× 2180mm, wheelbase 4000mm. Carriage size 3540× 2250× 584mm. The load capacity is 4 tons, the empty car weighs 3.9 tons, and the total load is 8.05 tons. The car is equipped with a Gies 120 inline 6-cylinder water-cooled gasoline engine, using Soviet standard A66 gasoline, with a bore of 101.6 mm (4 inches), a stroke of 114.3 mm (4.5 inches), a displacement of 5.55 liters, and a compression ratio of 6. The bore and stroke data are the same as those of the previous generation, the Gies 5. Maximum power 95 hp / 2800 r / min, maximum torque 310 N·m / 1300 r / min. Connected to the engine is a two-piece dry clutch, the transmission is a 5-speed manual transmission with a maximum gear ratio of 0.81. The rear axle uses a central two-stage reduction bridge with a main reduction ratio of 7.63. It uses 6.00T×20 rims and 9.00-20 tires. The maximum speed of the vehicle is 65km/h, the fuel consumption of 100 km is 38L, the fuel tank volume is 150L, and the driving range is about 400km.
The engine's air filter has been lost. The Gil 150, produced after April 1957, replaced the original gray cast iron cylinder head with an aluminum alloy cylinder head, and the compression ratio could reach 6.2, and the engine power was increased to 97 horsepower.
In addition to the carburetor, the air compressor and 4-blade fan of the old car were also replaced in the renovation.
The Jiefang CA10 car has no filter in this position.
Although the Gies 150 car is overall strong and durable, but the fuel consumption is still relatively high, although the carburetor has been improved several times, it has been replaced from MKZ-14V to MKZ-16 (MKZ-K-80) and MKZ-K-82 carburetor, the power and economy have improved, but the fuel consumption is still high. After the Geese 150 car was introduced into production by FAW, the problem of high fuel consumption also appeared on the Jiefang CA10 car, forcing domestic companies to develop several new carburetors to replace the MKZ-K-80 carburetor, which in turn promoted the improvement of the vehicle product change, and also provided technical transformation parts for the batch of older Giss 150 cars and Jiefang CA10 cars on the market.
The front axle was empty at 1.8 tons and 2.085 tons at full capacity.
The car's front axle cap had an additional screw plug that was not available on the CA10 car
The rear axle load is 2.1 tons empty and the full load is 5.965 tons.
The shape of the half-axis is basically the same as that of the Liberation CA10
Just as the Liberation CA10 was improved into a CA10B car, the Stalin Automobile Factory/Likhachev Automobile Factory also developed a number of test vehicles for the Guise 125, Gies 150V, Gies 150M and other models in the 1950s, and eventually the Gies 150 was improved to the Gil 164, and later the Likhachev Automobile Factory introduced a replacement product, the Gil 130. Gill 164 and Model 130 cars were also exported to China.
The interior and liberation CA10 are basically the same
This Gies 150 has changed to the domestic dashboard five meters are gasoline meter, oil pressure meter, speed and odometer, water temperature meter, and ammeter. Different batches of the Gies 150 dashboard will be different, and the circle on the right is the barometer.

There is an almost forgotten history of the Gies 150, from August 1955 to February 1956, before China's first automobile factory produced the Liberation CA10, it used rough blanks and parts imported from the Soviet Union to debug the production line and trial-install 500 Gies 150 cars, of which 430 were in 1956. Of course, to this day, where the Chinese assembled Gies 150 went, whether there were photos, and whether they were stored in the garage of which collector, it is difficult to verify. Looking at the Gies 150 in front of me, everything is so strange and familiar. Looking back on the golden years of decades ago, it is always emotional and exciting...
