The ZIS-110 was a limousine from Russian car manufacturer ZIL, introduced in 1946. The ZIS-110 was developed from the reverse engineering of a 1942 Packard Super Eight during 1944. The first 5 prototypes were completed by August 1945. It was powered by a 6-litre, 8-cylinder engine producing 140hp and giving a top speed of over 140 km/h (87 mph). It was made in both sedan and convertible versions.
The ZIS was rumoured to use machinery from the Packard 180 assembly line which was sent to the USSR after American production ended. However, according to The Fall of the Packard Motor Car Company, there is no evidence whatsoever in the Packard archives of such a transfer. Moreover, as one of the main results of the collection of information and material of Bert Hein, there can be lots of current opinions within the car literature disproved. The database includes, in addition to some pictures of commissars with Packard's, a registry of existing cars and information about all ZIS versions, but particularly a point to point comparison between the products of Packard and ZIL. Therefore more likely that the top commissars, including Joseph Stalin, owned several Packard's and wanted their first effort at a luxury car to be based on what is arguably one of the top cars of the 1940's. These cars were often given as gifts to foreign communist leaders such as Mao Zedong and Kim Il-sung. After Stalin's ZIS-110c cabriolet was used as a parade car for Nikita Khrushchev, the car was given as a gift to Enver Hoxha, the lifelong president of Albania.

Contents: - Left bonnet,Right bonnet,Left bonnet moulding, Right bonnet moulding, 5 - Ornament, 6 - Bonnet hinge,Bonnet hinge rail,Phillips screwdriver,Screws
Align the locator pins on the bonnet hinge rail with the corresponding holes in the bonnet hinge.Check that the parts fit flush together, then apply a small amount of glue along the join to fix together.Insert the pins of the ornament into the holes in the centre of the bonnet hinge rail and secure with a little glue.Align the pins on the left bonnet moulding with the holes along the side of the left bonnet. The front edge of the moulding is rounded slightly to fit the bonnet half. Press the moulding into place and secure it with six AP screws taking care not to overtighten the screws, as this can cause the moulding to bend.Repeat these steps for the right bonnet moulding and right bonnet in the same way.
Stage complete, carefully store any remaining parts in a stage labelled bag.Spal attached the following image(s):

Stage 4
Contents: Tyre,Wheel,Hubcap,Badge.
At room temperature, the tyre material has a low elasticity. To make the installation of the wheel easier, it’s a good idea to warm the tyre. To do this, you can immerse the tyre in hot water, or use a heat source such as a hair dryer to warm it.
Insert the wheel into the centre of the tyre. Turn the wheel so that it fits into the space between the two walls of the tyre.Work around the tyre, pushing and pulling it so that it fits flush with the wheel. Check that both sides fit together properly, then leave it to cool. If the tyre cools before the correct fit is achieved, use the techniques described previously to reheat it.Push the badge into the central recess of the hubcap, inserting the pins into the corresponding holes.Press the hubcap into the middle of the wheel, noting the cutout position that fits around the tyre valve.
