Hey everyone! Author here. Thank you so much for all of your feedback on this post. Our driver, whom we affectionately called "Bambino," told us that the car was a 1929 Ford Model T, and I took that information at face value. My bad for not double-checking.

Chances are, this automobile actually consists of parts from many different types, makes, and models of vehicles, just like many classic cars in Cuba. It's a testament to the creativity and ingenuity of mechanics there, who make do with what limited resources are available to them. Though this may not be a "perfectly restored" Ford Model T (or A), I still think it's quite a magnificent vehicle.
