Cpt.Fred Posted December 6, 2011 Report Share Posted December 6, 2011 Hi everyone, just wanted to drop by and share some pics i found in an article about Cuba in 1954... at least 2 of them show old MOPAR metal in the background. nice colors. i'm not sure about the last one being a mopar, but hey. other than that i hardly have the time to visit at the moment, working my way through giant piles of.. well, work, piles of work. the P10 is stored nice and dry with a few more pounds of pressure on the tires and a blanket on the roof. right next to it, still in the box, are the new skirts waiting to get their patina treatment and for the spring to come. i hope everyone's fine! best from berlin, fred Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
randroid Posted December 6, 2011 Report Share Posted December 6, 2011 Fred, Thanks for the well wishes, and we extend the same to you. I noticed the man in the last picture was wearing a top coat and gloves. Must be the dead of winter there with a projected low of 60 degrees. -Randy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cpt.Fred Posted December 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 7, 2011 hmm... now that you mention it... i guess they put a wrong photo into the cuba article. it doesn't really look like cuba, does it. tststs:rolleyes: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Jordan Posted December 7, 2011 Report Share Posted December 7, 2011 This is just my 2 cents but I think Americans should be embarrassed at the way they treated Cuba. Seems like a typical case of bullying. After 40 years and it didn't work perhaps we should open up the country for American trade, tourism, and some culture exchange. Couldn't hurt. You gotta love their pride in their old metal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JerseyHarold Posted December 7, 2011 Report Share Posted December 7, 2011 I found a link to the Cuban version of Craigslist on another website, went there, and put 'Plymouth' in the search box. Lots of neat ads (in Spanish) for our old cars, with pictures in most of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobertKB Posted December 7, 2011 Report Share Posted December 7, 2011 Lots of Canadians visit Cuba every winter and always mention the old cars that are to be found there. When I went out to Victoria, British Columbia recently, there is an old tobacconist shop I visit. I haven't smoked in years but love to go in there just for the smell. They have a room set aside just for Cuban cigars. Guess what most American customers choose to buy...........Cuban cigars as they can't get them in the US. I agree with Don but I guess it all comes down to politics in Florida. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
