Here is some pic's of the transportation methods in Cuba.



I really wished this one would have fit in my suitcase!!!!

 

thats a couple of awesome rides!!! makes the trip worthwhile eh Marlon??

 

I don't know what I did, but you have to scroll to the side of the first picture to see the other pic's.

 

I love the white ford truck, great pics!

 

Great pics looks like a fun trip love that white ford

 

Some nice rides, the white pick up is truly awesome!
This backs up what I`ve heard about some neat old but fairly well maintained vehicles in Cuba.
Thanks for the pictures Marlon, I enjoyed them.

 

Thanks for the pics, that 51/2 woulda been a hell of a souvineur.

 

Ryan, how do you tell its 1/2??

 

1/2 tons only came in a 6 1/2 foot box. Any longboxes are a 3/4 and 1 ton.

The white 51/2 would look better with the correct hood and get rid of the Chevy bumper.

 

By 51/2 I was meaning 1951/1952 but just lazy.
I'm sure Marlon watched the movie "Honey I shrunk the kids" a couple times too. lol
But wow those old cars seeing them being drivin around daily and everywhere, would alone be worth the trip.

 

I have heard that since Cuba can't buy anything from the states alot of those old cars have russian motors in them. I would be interesting to look under the hood and see what they are.

 

Never got a chance to look under the hood of anything there, but it sure was neet seeing all the old vehicles driving around. There was a lot of the old stuff that was in desperate need of repair and you saw a lot of cars dead on the side of the road. The newer stuff there is hyundai, Volkswagen, and some mercedes ambulances. The most common new car on the road there is the renault, all of the taxi's we took were Renault's except for one lada.

 

names like that aren't too common around here!!!

 

Russian motors????
It`s bad enough that my Model T has a 327, so now there maybe a Model A running around Cuba with a Russian motor!
