When I was there in seventy three most of the taxis were simca arondes like my first car. I felt right at home whenever I rode in one. I had my first mb the sixty one two twenty b fintail at the time. It was out of place there since it had a lot of rust.

It was an interesting country. For cross country jaunts the morrocans used a lot of fifties american cars, like chrysler saratogas but running small diesel four cylinders. You would see them trundling along in the open countryside with arabs in chalabas stacked in there like cordwood.

Not many cars on the road in the open country at that time, and a lot of folks walking or riding bikes and donkeys. Not many tractors in the fields either, more animal drawn wooden plows.

It was beautiful country though and the people were very friendly and helpful.
