[ QUOTE ]
Still image from television footage shows a group of Cubans as they tried to sail a 1959 Buick converted into a boat through the Florida Straits towards the United States, on February 3, 2004. The group were intercepted at sea by the U.S. Coast Guard relatives in Cuba and Cuban exiles said on Feb. 4.

I knew those Buicks were go for something. They should have used a '70 GSX and the Coast Guard would not have caught them! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/wink.gif

The paper here said it was the same guys that floated the truck.
I gotta agree with MrT my hats off to them to.
The coast guard sank it just like they did the old truck guess it must not be an enviromental hazard and we gotta turn in our waste oil https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...emlins/mad.gif
