Mar 28, 2006 - Havana, Cuba - One of many Cuban Maquinas, aka Yank tanks or pre 1960 American Classic cars in the streets of Havana. One in eight cars in Cuba today is a pre-1960s American brand Ford, Chevrolet, Cadillac, Chrysler, Packard and other classic models. The Republic of Cuba is located in the northern Caribbean. The first European to visit Cuba was explorer Columbus in 1492. Centuries of colonial rule and revolutions followed. Cuba currently trades with almost every nation in the world, albeit with restrictions from the U.S. embargo. Trade with the USA is restricted to cash-only transactions for food and medicine. Historically, sugar, tobacco and nickel were the main sources of foreign trade income for Cuba, but in the 1990s tourism saw an explosive growth. (Credit Image: © Ruaridh Stewart/ZUMAPRESS.com)
