Somewhere in the forum you find a lot of pics, atom has made at his Cuba-trip two yeaqrs ago.

Sooner or later it could be possible, as the times on Cuba are changing drmatically nowadays.

atom ◊ 2015-11-23 10:47	As described above; most cars looks like this: 1951 Buick Special DeLuxe with some Volga engine. But there are some that would be worth a lot if restored, like this 1954 Buick Skylark: I've seen such cars in restored condition auctioned for $80,000-200,000.

Maybe the Cubans still have some nuts ideas about the value in real money of their old clunkers. As 25 years ago the DDR-citizens had. Used care were bizarrely overpriced and when the D-Mark came at the 1.7.1990, they thought, they could switch the prices from DDR-Mark to D-Mark. But this was an epic failure.

Gag Halfrunt ◊ 2021-02-24 10:33	Anyway, could the Model A be a Colección Habana replica? /vehicle.php?id=353128
Gamer ◊ 2021-02-24 11:06	No, this one looks (despite all the tuning) like a real one.
