Classics of the 1950s: its golden age



Many machine lovers agree that the 1950s were really unique. The golden age of classic cars.
Some wonderful examples of those years have been immortalized to this day. They could be rustic and strange, but some still look great.

Possibly the most remembered model of that time is the elegant Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz 1956 that symbolized the boisterous optimism of the United States, since they left victorious of the Second World War and ran towards a new era of the consumerism and the international influence.
Other specimens, such as the 1955 Coronado DeSoto Fireflite, brought horsepower and shine to the cars of the masses. Meanwhile, some like the 1958 Edsel Ranger, represented a more comfortable and disengaged style of life during those years.
But the classic cars of the 1950´s were not only produced and circulated in the United States. There were large models emerging in Europe such as the 1952-1955 Bentley R-Type, the 1953 1100TV Fiat from Italy and the Saab 1958 from Sweden.
There could not be lacking classics like the 1951 Chevrolet Sedan: one of the cars of those years with a beautiful design and an excellent engine. His companion of 1957 became famous by its appearance in films of the time.

The Buick Roadmaster, created in 1956, with precious lines, and very modern for its time, was another one that made history. At the moment it is one of the classic cars more desired by the collectors.
Another of the old models, the 1955 Oldsmobile. It was one of the most beautiful American luxury cars, always decorated with two colors and very characteristic of the time.







Many of these models still circulate in Cuba beautifully preserved.
