Cubans have a continuing love affair with the classic cars from the golden age of American automobiles. Incredibly 60,000 of these cars made in the 1940s and 1950s are still in full use and for many Cuban people their only form of transport. They're at the centre of everyday life, courtships, marriages, careers and, family outings. They are cherished and cared for like an old friend as they pass from generation to generation.
Isolated in their island nation where the embargo makes U.S. made parts impossible to obtain, they must improvise with every tool and hand-make every part. Sheer skill and ingenuity keeps the fleet running, just like our Coco Cubano franchise - a well-oiled machine. The skills and resources necessary to maintain a car are considered a well-kept secret, passed down from father to son through the generations.
