Yeah you definately are lost...heres where you will find the answer regarding your F150 question...
Ford F150 (http://forums.beyond.ca/showthread.php?s=&threadid=70188)
when castro took over in 1959 the import of american cars stopped. this is why the latest american cars that are 'generally' seen in cuba are pre-59. It is like going into a strange spanish time warp, haha. really cool though.

those are the sweetest cars ever... it would almost be like being on the set of a retro hollywood movie. I would definitely rock a red '57 Chevrolet if I could afford one.
I love the coco Taxi's down there...
and the mopeds.. soo much fun.. hehe

We stayed at the Brisas Del Caribe in Varadero.I probably saw your hotel.We rode around on one of those open top double decker busses a few times. Sounds like your tour was quite an adventure !! :)
Here's a Renault 4 .My Dad owned one of these when we lived in England..
