It's a shame that you "fixed it". The black screen had a link at the top. The link let me get into your shared Flickr page. The page had pictures of a mess of really cool vehicles in Cuba!

Re: Thought I'd share a photo
 

that is very cool. thanks for sharing. i went thru all of them. :c2:

you should start posting a couple of pics of cuban cars every day, this would be a good thread.
i've read that private car ownership is forbidden in cuba, maybe that is why most of the old cars had taxi in the window.
lots of 40s and 50 steel in his pics. i guess not much was imported after fidel took over.

A lumber mill that my dad drove log trucks for in the late 50s had or3 of them they called them crummys. They were used to take the woods crews to work. Mort of the employees that worked for CAL_IDA lumber company lived at the mill the single guys lived in the barracks the married lived in small cabins.

There is a show on netflix that i watched about Cuba and their cars. It really does look like the 50s in Cuba! (car wise) Id love to go there just for that.

Did you guys notice the flare around the wheel openings?

Re: Thought I'd share a photo
 

Haven't heard crummy in that context for a long time. A lot of the men in my neighborhood, including by Dad for a while after WWII, logged. When we were cleaning out his stuff found his original chainsaw. Imaige lugging a lawn mower engine attached to a 42" blade up and down hills all day. It must have weighed 80 pounds. When I told him he said, "oh don't forget you were in rain gear and also carried a couple of gallons of gas too". Tough men.

Yeah those things were huge Is it one of the ones with a motorcycle like handle bar?

Re: Thought I'd share a photo
 

I was in cuba for 20 days of cycling in November and seen lots of interesting cars but very few trucks. Seems that the pickup, due to its limited people moving capacity, is not as popular. Here are some I did find.
