I heard on Anthony Bourdain's show a couple of years ago that the reason there are so many classic cars in Cuba is because they rarely get anything new, so must make their "riches" from the 50's (before the massive embargoes were instituted) last and last and last.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17208615970286164894noreply@blogger.com
