This Vintage photograph is from my hometown of Santa Clara, Cuba. You can see the cars (Taxis?) parked by the “Parque Vidal” located in the center of the city. Looks like early 50’s when the cars were originals. These could be the same vehicles that roam Cuban roads in extreme poor conditions. Can you spot the Buicks?

In the meantime I finished installing the front garnish molding felt whiskers that I started on April 24th.

The buffer man promised that he will finish sanding and polishing the car next Saturday. Like many delays, this was due to the COVID Pandemic, he does this as a part time job and been working double shift at a hospital where some of his co-workers got the virus and he had to fill in for them.

Thanks for the offer but I was able to fix mine. The shaft was broken in half about 1” from the base. I found the knob piece lying in a miscellaneous parts box and was able to remove the broken tube type piece from the screw in type base and insert the remaining knob shaft in place. Had to use a rubber mallet and strong force to slide into the small base shaft. The turn signal level is about 3/4” smaller in length but works and looks fine. I should have taken pictures of the process.
