Before the designers of Zaporizhia automobile plant were given a clear task: to build a car to collect letters from the mailbox in the major cities of the vast country. Normal cars of those years is not well suited for such service, because in the course of the day the driver had to leave the car hundreds of times, walking around her, and out had on the roadway, which was quite unsafe. An unusual “right-handed” arrangement of controls 965С is due to the desire to simplify the procedure of withdrawal of letters: the postman now looked directly out on the sidewalk — right next to the box.

The place of the rear seats occupied compartment for collected correspondence, and the rear Windows were done “blind” — with metal panels (instead of glass) with a characteristic inscription of “communication”. Capacity 2-seater car was a modest 150 kg (weight 650 kg). Some instances ZAZ-965С also had the side air intakes of the original form.

ZAZ-965С has released a small batch (several hundred machines) in 1960-62. And there are versions like the “face” from the early 965 (with turns-“warts” on the front fenders), and restyled 965A. It is believed that our time is not survived any one instance of this very interesting model because, at the end of its life in the mail, they simply wrote off and cut on scrap metal. Rumor has it that in one of the private collections in Russia there is such a vehicle, however, official confirmation of this fact no. Note that a few years ago “Ukrposhta” was scrapped a few “cars” spare parts for old cars-postmen, many of whom were new parts and 965С.
