Chapter 1082: classic cars

Garcia heard Pan Peiyu's words and drove the two directly away from the airport, but they did not go in the same direction as everyone.
They were walking in the other direction of the airport, and there was a small military airport over there. Nobody else could enter, but Garcia and the others had no problem.
While passing through the airport, Xiao Peng told Garcia to stop quickly! Because he found something interesting!
"Garcia! Is that a P-51?" Xiao Peng said, pointing to a propeller plane parked on one side of the airport.
Garcia tilted his head and looked: "Yes, this airport belongs to the Cuban Navy. There is a P-51 fleet that cooperates with patrol boats for coastal patrols. Is there any problem?"
Xiao Peng was silent for a while, and two words popped out of his mouth: "Sell?"
"Puff." Garcia and Sun Pengcheng sprayed together.
Garcia's eyes widened: "Mr. Xiao, are you kidding me?"
Sun Pengcheng said speechlessly: "Brother Peng, what do you want this thing for? It's something more than half a century ago! It's useless if you put it on your island! Don't you have Rainbow-5? That thing is better than this thing. Used too much!"
Xiao Peng's eyes widened: "It's easy to use? Can Rainbow-5 take me to the sky? Garcia, is this stuff for sale? Just ask a price, I really buy it!"
P-51 Mustang is definitely a magic machine! Where is God? A few years ago, there was a rumor spread throughout the military circles around the world that the Star-Stripe Nation planned to equip the ground forces with some ultra-light observation aircraft, and prepared to take out the P-51 to return to service.
Now that no-man-machines are fully emerging, how can it be possible to take out the old aircraft of World War II and return to service? But this rumor really convinced many people around the world! There is no other reason to believe, because they are talking about the P-51, the most amazing aircraft during World War II. No matter who your opponent is, you can keep the wind down. The entire World War II took off and fought more than 10,000 sorties and destroyed more than 8,000 enemy aircraft! The absolute star fighter of World War II, the absolute king of fighter planes! Especially after replacing the Merlin engine of the Rolls-Royce, the long range speed was definitely a nightmare for Germany and Japan during World War II.
(Regarding whether this is a rumor, Lao Yang doesn’t know whether it’s true or not. P-51 has his advantage, that is, it’s cheap. Even with the most advanced avionics and other airborne equipment, the price of this aircraft is not It will be more than six million U.S. dollars. If it is China, it will definitely use drones. The price of Pterosaur 1 is less than one million U.S. dollars. If it is the Stars and Stripes, it’s hard to say. The cheap MQ-1 costs five hundred. Ten thousand dollars, while the advanced MQ-9 "Reaper" costs thirty million. And P-51 flies faster and more convenient to use.)
Garcia listened to Xiao Peng's words and smiled bitterly: "Mr. Xiao, you are joking, this is our country's military assets, not what we can say!"
Xiao Peng thought for a while: "Otherwise, let's exchange it? Can I buy a batch of airplanes from our country for beginners, 6th, 7th, etc., to exchange with you?"
Sun Pengcheng smiled bitterly: "Brother Peng, don't you scare Garcia? Why do you see P-51 so excited?"
Xiao Peng's eyes widened: "How can you not be excited! A famous World War II plane! I used to get a Zero from the sea, but it couldn't fly, so I could only put it there as a statue! Now I encountered a P that could fly into the sky. -51, how can I not be excited? Pull-7, FW190 and other famous World War II planes are all set up to play at home, and it is comfortable to think about it."
Sun Pengcheng poked Xiao Peng: "Let's not scare Garcia. You are creating tension. Our country also has P-51. After I go back, I will ask Grandpa to find a way for you!"
"Where is the P-51 in our country?" Xiao Peng's eyes widened.
Sun Pengcheng sighed: "Brother Peng, let's not show our cowardice, okay? There were nine P-51s at the founding ceremony of the country. We naturally have some of the principals. Those are the captains of the transportation brigade. They quit knitting in the 1950s and they are all put in museum Here, you ask my grandfather to do this, I don’t think there is any problem."
Xiao Peng's eyes lighted up, and Sun Pengcheng hurriedly waved to Garcia: "Garcia, hurry up and go, brother Peng thinks that he will like these old things. This time he will treat your classic car. Interested!"
Cuba is known as the "country of classic cars." There are classic cars from the 1930s to the 1950s. It’s not that they are nostalgic. There is really no way. After years of economic blockade, materials can’t get in at all and can only use the original The classic cars in China are three years old, three years old, and another fifty years after stitching. The classic cars of other countries are kept in the museum, and the classic cars here run on the road.
Garcia made a phone call and started the car with an'ok' gesture to Sun Pengcheng: "I will take you to a good place. It will definitely satisfy Mr. Xiao."
He drove not toward Havana, but toward the suburbs. About forty minutes later, they came to a small village, and the ground was muddy because of the rain. Garcia still didn't forget to give his thumbs up: "Your Huaxia car is really great, and there is no problem at all on this road. The original Pontiac of our unit would have fallen apart if it ran on such a road."
Xiao Peng smiled and said: "Haval H5 is still relatively resistant to build!" What he wanted to say in his heart is, you compare Pontiac and Haval H5 more than half a century ago? Is this a curse?
Garcia didn't care, and took Xiao Peng to a small courtyard surrounded by concrete walls and barbed wire. After honking the horn, the big iron door opened and Garcia drove the car in.
"Where is this? Why is it like an underground party connection?" Sun Pengcheng asked puzzledly.
After Garcia drove the car into the yard, Xiao Peng discovered that this was an auto repair shop. Call it this name for now. There were a few car shells in the car that looked like they were picked up from a garbage station.
There are rusty jacks, hammers, various mallets and wrenches, as well as homemade welding equipment and various specifications of nuts and bolts.
As soon as they got out of the car, a girl ran over and hugged Garcia. After the two kissed passionately, Garcia took the girl to Xiao Peng and Sun Pengcheng and introduced: "This is my girlfriend Dana-Amas, Dana, this is my Chinese classmate Sun Pengcheng, this is his friend Xiao. Peng."
Dana was very enthusiastic and shook hands with Xiao Peng. Xiao Peng was puzzled by the fact that she called the two "Dear". Isn't this Garcia's girlfriend?
Garcia seemed to know Xiao Peng's thoughts: "Mr. Xiao, don't mind, this is just one of our Cuban titles. Cuban women generally call new male guests dear. This has nothing to do with love."
Xiao Peng was a little embarrassed after hearing this: "I think so, how could such a beautiful girl blindly look at the looks of me and Pengcheng?"
Dana smiled slightly: "No, no, Mr. Xiao, you look very handsome, but you are a little thinner. If you are a little fuller, it will be better.",
Xiao Peng scratched his head after hearing this. The Cuban's aesthetics is that he looks good when he is tall and strong. Are the men here are muscular men and women? . . . . . If my mother is here, Xiao Peng will definitely let Xiao Peng find his girlfriend here, because'big is good for health'! The whole America loves big women.
Garcia introduced: "Mr. Xiao, this is a car workshop owned by my girlfriend's house. Of course, this is not legal, so I drive to such a remote place. But trust me, such car workshops are everywhere in Cuba. Yes, people cannot do without such a place. You really want to come here if you want to see a classic car."
Xiao Peng looked around, "Are you talking about those rusty car shelves?"
When Dana heard this, she smiled and waved to Xiao Peng: "Mr. Xiao, come here and take a look!"
Only then did Xiao Peng discover that there was a small door next to it, leading to another courtyard. As soon as Xiao Peng walked into the small door, he whistled.
As soon as I walked in, I saw a sky blue Oldsmobile car from 1953! Such a car can only be seen at the Pebble Beach car auction in California, but there is such a car parked in front of him. The maintenance is very good and looks like a new car from the factory.
Xiao Peng was surprised: "Why is this car so new?"
Dana explained with a smile: "This car is over 60 years old, and our country does not have spare parts to repair, so if we want this car to continue running, we must rely on a car workshop like ours to do it, for example, say What should I do if someone smashes the door of the car in a car accident? It can only be made by hand. Did you see the mallets just now? Just knock out a new door with those mallets. Let’s put it this way. Maintenance is done by hand molding."
Xiao Peng carefully observed the exterior of the car and discovered that there were signs of repairs in many parts of the car, but the technology was so high that it would be impossible to see without careful observation!
Xiao Peng pointed to a symmetrical square indentation and asked, "Is this also formed by hand?"
Dana nodded: "Yes! It's all done with one hammer and one hammer!"
Xiao Peng gave a thumbs up: "This is no longer work, but art! But Dana, I don't quite understand a problem."
"What's the problem?" Dana looked at Xiao Peng.
"The shell can be repaired, what should I do if the engine is broken?" Xiao Peng asked puzzledly: "No matter how well maintained, the engine won't hold for more than 60 years, right?"
Dana smiled slightly after hearing this, and opened the hood of this Osmobile directly. Xiao Peng was dumbfounded after seeing the engine inside: "What kind of engine is this?" He also has a lot of cars, but he has never seen it before. Such an engine! Small size is not enough, it seems that the engine compartment is empty.
Dana saw Xiao Peng’s dumbfounded expression and laughed:
The original engine has been destroyed, so I found an electric welding machine engine made in the former Soviet Union and installed it in. Although the power is a bit low, it still works fine. of."
Xiao Peng was completely stunned after hearing this. The hands-on ability of the Cuban people is simply invincible!
