It often happens to me that I find photos I wanted to publish at some point, but then for one reason or another, I forgot about them. A while ago, I made a post about an antique car museum here in Havana, but as you rightly say in your post, here, for example, to see these cars you don’t need a fair — it’s the most normal thing in the world. In fact, it’s the most basic means of public transportation, at least in Havana. More out of necessity than choice, but that’s how it is.
This is a random photo I took with my phone a few days ago.

Most people when hearing about Cuba, think about these cars, cigars and Havana rum. I know it must be a lot of fun as a tourist, as they then go back to their life, driving fast and performant cars. Cubans remain where they were before, with all the problems, like lack of everything, driving an old car that is close to dying every day and safety is just a dream.
It's very sad and what is more sad is, I don't know when things are going to change. It's the 21st century and time to catch up with normal standards was ages ago.
