Ever been to a place that brings you back in time?
I'm not a car fanatic, by far; I would gladly skip cars and motos entirely if I could just ride a bicycle everytime. But when I visited Cuba, the classic cars got my attention. It seemed I was in a classic movie!
It's been already 13 years since I've visited Havana (time flies!!); there were some newer cars, but these classic cars were all over the place. And it's wasn't one of those things made for tourists: with all the import bans Cuba had to endure, the only way to maintain the automobile fleet, was to keep the ones in the country going, since it was hard to get new cars in the island!
The result? Being able to see these beauties, perfectly maintained, everywhere you go. Perfect candidates for a monomad challenge! I'm guessing that for the ones that enjoy classic cars, a trip to Havana feels like Heaven!
Not only classic cars can you find in Havana. The trucks and buses are also from early last century, and they're exactly the same you would see in an american classic movie. I was searching for a decent bus photo in my archive, but couldn't find any (have I told you how bad of a photographer I was a few years ago?), so this truck will have to do to illustrate my point.
Another classic? Police cars!
Can you feel the 50's vibe?
Travelling here brings you back in time; Cuba has a ton of things to offer, and being able to see these cars in perfect condition is just a very tiny part of it. So consider it as another of the (many!) Cuban attractions!
Now that I think of it, 13 years is a long time. Maybe things have changed, and they are not that common anymore. Honestly, crossing finger they still are; it's part of Havana's charm!

Ahahah Verdade! Hoje já consigo rir da situação, na altura só pensava na sorte de estar ali alguém que falava bem o Castelhano e que me safou de uma história pior! Ahahah
Só faltava a musica do psycho a acompanhar! :)))
Se tivesse música do Psycho, eu ia pensar, tal como na na nossa primeira aula, que estava a ser filmado para "Os Apanhados" de tal "fora da caixa" que foi aquela cena! LOL

Probably! Though I suspect some things are still frozen in time.
Old cars look classy!
They sure do!
The cars of yesteryear were much stronger and much more beautiful than the cars you have just shared.
Yay! 🤗
