Vintage Car Part Auction

We restored this car for the original owner. It has been an SCCA racecar all it’s life. The car finished the 12 Hours of Sebring in 1956 and was raced through 1967 then parked in the basement. Today is the first time it has turned a wheel in over 40 years! Yes, it’s a blast to drive and NO, it is NOT for sale!!
Thanks,

ZHANG:
As Detroit automakers battle to survive, their vintage cars in Cuba may outlive them. Lacking access to original car parts Cubans make their own parts or take them from other cars. Here’s more.

STORY:
As U.S. automakers struggle to survive, they can take heart. Their gas guzzling cars may outlive them in Communist-run Cuba.

Even a four-decade long trade embargo has not kept determined Cubans from continually fixing up their beloved cars. Detroit relics dating back to the nifty fifties.

Just look at Havana’s Malecon Avenue. It’s a living automobile museum.

Old classic Buicks and Fords ramble alongside new Korean and French cars that aren’t subject to an embargo, or what Cubans call a “blockade.”

Lacking access to original car parts, Cubans like taxi driver Luis Alvarez resort to ingenuity.

[Luis Alvarez, Taxi Driver]:
“We have to invent here a set of pistons. But there are people who make the parts here in Cuba itself.”

Cabbie Felix Padron scavenges for components.

[Felix Padron, Taxi Driver]:
“Adapting them to what’s available, and finding original parts, but there aren’t many. Some are from old cars, some from other cars.”

Some 60,000 vintage cars are still running. Many of them are in good shape even if the chassis is the sole original part left. Some wheels are older than the guys behind them.

Daniel Vencomo’s Buick predates Fidel Castro’s revolution. His mighty metal reflects the adage, they don’t make ‘em like they used to.

[Daniel Vencomo, Taxi Driver]:
“Sixty-five years old, and I reckon this car is going to outlive me.”

He says he’ll pass it on to his youngest son.

And so, whether Detroit lives or dies, their cars will likely live on. They’re as symbolically Cuban as Cohibas. [Read More...]
