JimF-LowBari Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 (edited) If we are talking old corps....the OLC Ramblers. Oh yeah.. just thought of it.... the German Opel Kadett... or Americanized.. Cadet Had a friend who owned a used one. After he bought it he knew why it was so cheap...... color was even chicken #### green in his opinion.. And Andy from corpsreps - Flint, MI Buick Skylarks As the name might imply, the Skylarks had links to Michigan's automobile industry. In 1964 they traveled to competitions in a caravan of 12 new Buick Skylarks, courtesy of their sponsors. The corps was established in 1935 with 45 founding members who were mostly WWI veterans. They practiced at the Old American Legion Hall on Kearsley Street and rehearsed outside at Central High School's field. It was active until it folded in 1966.

Fred Windish Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 (edited) Testarossa Cadets from Rome, NY? (My memory is not real clear anymore, but some vehicle was named Cadet) . . . . . . Just looked it up, Vauxhall Cadet. Edited August 6, 2014 by Fred Windish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lovindrumcorps Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 (edited) I had remembered a Caballero out there.. Had to search. GMC had an El Camino called the Caballero back in the 80s. Ironic. I had a neighbor with a similar car with the carpeted dashboard and zebra skin seats with a mural of a Mexican gun fighter on the tailgate.
