The only american cars now found on the island are models that predate the Kennedy Administration and studebakers, oldsmobiles and packards. Estimates say about 60,000 American Classics remain in cuba. They drive alongside mostly ladas and other sovietbloc autos.

As for interest among american car collectors, rick drewry of modern american insurance writes full screen rick drewry, senior claims specialist, collector vehicle motorcycle, American Modern Insurance Group these cars have been kept running for 50 years with very little resources available. They are not original but they have a great story to tell. He adds american collectors if ever allowed would scour cuba looking for pre 1960s racing cars or an auto stashed in a barn and untouched for decades.
