Tri-Fives have to be my least favorite Chevys.

I can't wait until there's free trade between Cuba and the US.... Think of all the classic cars that were preserved in one way shape or form! Even though I'm sure nothing on these cars are original, I'd still love to pick up an old caddy on the cheap since it would have tons of character.

But they're all basket cases. They've been cobbled together over the years with a mish-mash of broken parts, wrong parts, home-made parts, and duct tape.

I've read articles that documented what Cubans would do to keep these cars running. 4 cylinder diesel marine engines in vehicles such as the one pictured. THAT'S ingenuity IMO.

Wow, that was a cool read. I got to find that movie where they show the guys fabricating crazy replacements.
