This is evident by the large number of vintage\u00a0vehicles on the roads, many in pristine condition. I had the chance to chat with some of the owners about their vehicles. Each of them very proud of their prize possession. I was curious how they were able to get parts. They informed me that some of the parts are brought in\u00a0by family members traveling from the U.S, others through black market dealers,\u00a0but most parts are a result of resourceful craftsmanship.
