While Villa La Angostura seemed to be teeming with classic sports cars, Mendoza seemed to be teeming with everyday cars from the 60s, 70s, and 80s. I used to hate the automobile stylings from the 80s, but, and I don´t know if this is nostalgia or a more refined design sense, I really enjoyed looking at the clean lines of the cars I saw in Mendoza. Some examples below (sorry so many of the photos are in shadow – too many damn trees in Mendoza).
I also dug the more curvy lines of this van.
And this classic little Fiat.
And this Renault 4.
It´s hard to see in the above photo, but Renault 4´s remind me of a képi, the hat Charles de Gaulle wore.
