I went to Cuba once and saw many of them up close... oftentimes, only the outer shell is still the original. Due to the embargo, spare parts for American cars have always been difficult to source, but that didn't stop inventive Cubans from keeping the cars running using anything they could come by. So your '57 Buick might actually have a Russian Lada engine under the hood or a diesel truck engine, maybe even a boat engine. Other than that though, they are often in remarkable condition on the outside, despite the damp tropical climate. Yep, heavy boat engines ruining the chassis. I watched that Cuban Chrome show on Discovery Channel a while back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I watched that Cuban Chrome show on Discovery Channel a while back. Interesting. I was not even aware of that show. It's really awesome if they'll manage to preserve all of those old cars. They are really a part of Cuban identity the same way that Miami would be unthinkable without the Art Deco District. Because they're not just in the hands of a few classic car fans, but really still the workhorses for many people in everyday traffic. I hope that this cultural heritage doesn't become lost if and when Cuba enters more extensive trade relations with the U.S. and the West. These cars weren't kept all those years because Cubans liked 1950s American cars so much, but out of necessity. And one day when standards of living in Cuba rise and the average person can afford to trade in their old car for a modern production car, that tradition could die out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daytona74 Posted July 12, 2018 Report Share Posted July 12, 2018 (edited) Awesome instrumental track I remember it actually being played at parties or in dance clubs when it came out. Edited July 12, 2018 by Daytona74 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In any case It's a fine line between ingenuity and insanity as he demonstrates with this incredible performance: Edited July 14, 2018 by daytona365 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marc Posted July 16, 2018 Report Share Posted July 16, 2018 I never liked the Pink Floyd track Dogs of War that was used in Miami Vice and think this one is better fit with the show. also one of my top three songs used in the Sopranos was Comfortably Numb if you know the scene. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dadrian Posted July 17, 2018 Report Share Posted July 17, 2018 I heard “Learning to Fly” at a restaurant just the other night. It’d been awhile. I always thought that should’ve been in a S4 or 5 episode. Maybe it was too obvious haha. I’ve always wondered if Jan Hammer was inspired by David Gilmour’s guitar tones. I know they are friends. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jpaul1 Posted July 21, 2018 Report Share Posted July 21, 2018 (edited) looks like a mafia movie to me. but never saw it. i think you can find clues with the town background maybe. according to the cars, i'd say a late 70s movie, but could be wrong though. and kudos to the stuntsmen btw. doing stunts with that era cars was pretty much a single ticket to the cemetary Edited July 21, 2018 by jpm1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
