Presenting the Mercedes of Yugoslavia:  1971 Zastava 1300, nicknamed Tristatch, the pinnacle of the Zastava product line of all time.  Manufactured between 1964 and 1979, it represented the ultimate of upper middle class achievement in the socialist country.  This particular model is the Luxe edition, featuring various upgraded features, but most notably the very rare and very posh rear seat fold down upholstered armrest!  It has a 1300cc engine and a 5 speed transmission and just glides down the road.  Exceptionally comfortable and smooth riding car.  Leaves no doubt of its stature in the array of the most prevalent cars on the road during its time.  Only exceeded in both social and physical stature by the Russian import Lada (4 light) "Specijal" which was only trumped by the fabled Fiat 132 (actually built by Fiat).  For the common Yugoslav the 1300 was the car of dreams, desires, and demonstration of one's value to the party and of course the community.  An excellent and most iconic car.  Very distinctive on its own.  Get yours now!
