Crazy but True
Cuba has thousands of 1950s American cars still on the road, kept alive for over sixty years with handmade parts and improvised engines. After the 1959 revolution, imports stopped, so mechanics simply never let the existing cars die. Many now run on Soviet diesel engines under original bodywork.
