Old Cars in Uruguay can anyone name the make model and year of any of these cars?
Every few miles along the road there was another collection of beautiful old cars. I felt like I was going back in time or was part of a scene in a movie.

I was taken aback as I drove through the countryside in Uruguay and saw this real time museum of vintage cars.

It seems that Uruguay, for many years, has manufactured its own brand of car. These are kit cars from Russia that are assembled in Uruguay. To promote them the government has imposed huge import taxes on new foreign cars. These Uruguayan vehicles are not well built nor are they popular, as a result many fine older automobiles have been imported from North America and Europe and have been well preserved. The country is a living antique auto museum.
If you want to experience this for yourself then definitely put Uruguay on your bucket list.
