The former race-car mechanic has amassed hundreds of rust-bucket Soviet cars, symbols of a vibrant automobile industry that crashed with the fall of the Soviet Union.

His open-air collection draws in car lovers and nostalgia hunters during the warmer months.

Krasinets says "welcomes" and is "willing to talk to everyone".
