Here is a Lada VAZ-2106, the No. 6 on the blog.
A Lada VAZ-2106 is colloquially most often referred to as a "six" here in Russia.
This is another one of those Lada street racers.

Isuzu Piazza / Impulse
Here is an Isuzu Piazza (Impulse in the US), first generation, abandoned or at least unmoved for a long time.
As I said, this is a first-generation Isuzu Piazza and a JDM version too, i.e. the car designed by Giorgetto Giugiaro who had a free rein over the design. The result of his effort was the wedge-shaped three-door hatchback called the Asso di Fiori ("Ace of Clubs") prototype and show car that was then put into production by Isuza practically unchanged.
Wikipedia says...
The Isuzu Piazza is a small, sporty 3-door liftback coupé which was manufactured by Isuzu from 1981 to 1992 in two generations. The Isuzu Piazza was marketed as the Isuzu Impulse in North America and as the Holden Piazza in Australia.
The first generation Impulse was a rear-wheel drive car.
As of 2010, the number of registered Impulses totaled only 2,300, making Impulses very rare. The car was produced in very low numbers, totaling slightly over 13,000 units.
So this seems like a rare find.
And here is that famous Isuzu Piazza dash and instrument cluster - what's left of it.

Moskvitch 2140
Here is a Moskvitch 2140, post-1982 refresh.
As it's one of my few absolute favorites, it always gets to this blog regardless the condition or surroundings or even the weather or time of the year.
My count of these vehicles remaining on the road also goes well, this being the 6th Moskvitch 2140 overall and the 4th post-1982 Moskvitch 2140.

A playful aerography on the hood.
Manufactured under license from Chrysler, the Siber used the platform and tooling from the second generation Chrysler Sebring/Dodge Stratus with slight design modifications to its grille and headlights.
