Old Vehicles, Havana




The blue car is a 1946-48 Chrysler Windsor, a luxury car in its day. Note the Che Guevara stickers on the headlights. Most of the old cars in Havana are used as Taxi Cabs to transport tourist around town. Some of them are held together with baling wire and hope, while others are completely restored. The truck is an unusual old vehicle as it is not a car. It is a 1951 Chevy half ton truck that looks to be in wonderful, restored condition. It isn't a Taxi, but obviously is used to make a living somehow.

  4. That's a city I'd love to see - all those old cars would make it seem like stepping back in time.
