Chasovoyarsky repair plant

1958-1991

The plant was founded in 1958 . The main activity of the enterprise was the overhaul of GAZ and ZIL automobiles. Since the 1980s, the plant began producing shift buses TS-3966 on the GAZ-53A chassis and mobile control centers on the UAZ-3303 chassis.

After 1991

In the early 1990s, demand for the company's products fell sharply, and the plant began to search for a production item that would allow it to preserve production capacities. In 1995, the company mastered the production of ambulances based on the GAZ-3302 . At the same time, the production of SPV-15 minibuses, as well as utility vans and special vehicles based on them, was launched. Since that time, the main products of the enterprise were buses of small and especially small capacity. Until the beginning of the 2000s, a gamma of buses on the GAZ-3302 chassis was developed and put on the conveyor. Modifications differ in the number of passenger seats, cabin layout and equipment.
