Way of Life in Socialist Cuba

Vintage Cuba - On my travels I met an English woman who told me since her last visit to Cuba 3 years ago there were many more classic cars on the road.  About a year ago Raul Castro introduced economic reforms to raise extra money for the embattled economy.  Now a greater number of Cubans have money to restore their cars and it was evidently clear with hundreds of these shiny American 1950s cars cruising the Cuban roads today. A stunning depiction into what the capitalist era may have looked.
