From Juan at 2007-03-22 20:57:06 : This buses are like my family. I grew up surrounded by them and I love them. They took me everywhere, to school, to work. These Olympics, specifically the 64-65 models, were very strong. Sometimes their engine was on for 24 hours during the Castro's toughest economical disaster. I am always looking for this kind of pictures and they are really rare.

From fagan at 2008-12-15 01:47:24 : there are about 300 of these buses in jamaica,although they stopped running around the early 1990s many people purchased them to use as offices,mobile food vendors,or just plain nostalgia.
