Driving a 'Top-Top' through the streets of Tatarsky Saiman. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
More than 200 residents of this village drive some kind of homemade vehicle known as 'Top-Tops'. The tradition started more than 50 years ago when it was difficult to purchase a car due to finances &amp; shortages. The head of the village council first made one &amp; it caught on. People would gather parts of discarded, broken-down vehicles &amp; make their own, often assembling their own engines. Now, it's a tradition that villagers are quite proud of. Needless to say, they come in all kinds of configurations.
