The ZIL-118 “Yunost” minibus, built on the ZIL-111 limousine platform, featured a powerful V8 engine and luxurious details like 17 individual passenger seats, personal lights, advanced ventilation, and panoramic windows.
It won 12 awards at the 1967 International Bus Week in Nice for its innovative design, and in 1970, Henry Ford II expressed interest in licensing the model or establishing joint production in the United States, but the Soviet Union declined. Ultimately just 106 units (multiple models) were produced between 1961 and 1994 for government use and special ambulances.ย [Reference](https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%97%D0%98%D0%9B-118)

In your photo ZiL-118A ambulance, not a standard ZiL-118.
118A is easily recognisable by a lifted roof without roof windows, frosted side windows and ivory livery, ~~and big word “ambulance” on the side~~

The Soviets really made some crazy vehicles
