CUBAN CLASSICS

The classic convertibles in Havana totally captivated me. These automobiles (‘cars’ seems too common a word to refer to these beautiful machines) were gleaming and well maintained - relics of a bygone era - Cadillacs, Chevrolets (“Chebi”), Buicks, Oldsmobile. Cuban mechanics are said to be one of the best in the world because with no spare parts available due to the embargo, they very resourcefullly use household appliances, parts from Russian Ladas and Moskvichs to maintain and repair these beautiful "almendrons" (so called because of their bulbous almond-like shapes). These automobiles are truly cherished in Cuba.
