Up until the onset of the Revolution in 1960, Cuba imported the majority of its automobiles from the US. After the embargo was imposed, however, other nations' vehicles started making their debut on Cuban streets. Yet the Cubans' stubborn preference for the size and quality of the older American brands has seen these beauties outlast and endure compared to the brands of foreign rivals. It's as if time has stopped and been frozen in an American decade of long ago.
If classic American automobiles tickle your fancy, take the advice of Maria Palomino
and make a trip to Cuba.
"Cuba is the ultimate American classic car roadshow."
