Vaionaut Posted January 19, 2017 (edited) Who wants to take a look back in the history of cars should go to Cuba. Everywhere you look there are American cars from the 1950s, still used as Cuba's everyday vehicles. The car in my vignette here doesn't represent a special model or brand, but has some influences from a Plymouth Belvedere and a Chevrolet Bel Air. Hope you like it ;) Welcome to Cuba by Vaionaut, on Flickr Best, Johannes Edited January 19, 2017 by Vaionaut Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sven F Posted January 26, 2017 (edited) Some great part usage there. I was going to say those medium blue slopes are quite rare and expensive, but now I see they made a comeback in nexo knights this year. It doesn't need to be any particular model for Cuba since they combine parts from other cars anyway. Edited January 26, 2017 by Sven F Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AFOLguy1970 Posted January 26, 2017 Great tropical scene with the 50's style car! If they ever make a 50's diner set, that would go well with it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
