This would be a great addition

This would be a great addition to our already rich game day traditions. Couldn’t you imagine our Tiger riding to mid field in this before the boys run down hill. Imagine any of our coaches riding in this at any parade or event. There has to be a rich Tiger fan somewhere that could make this happen.

Nah, too much like the Ramblin' Wreck from GT

I've always liked it when The Tiger skydives into Death Valley, but short of that, leading the team down the hill is plenty cool!

There used to be a Clemson Model "A". I posted awhile ago,

we actually had a drag race on the field with the GT "Ranblin' Wreck" Model "A" one year while I was there. I don't know what became of it. It costs money to restore an old car, one like that Caddy would be $$$$. Another like the old Model "A" would be about as cheap as it could be for an old car. They are relatively cheap and plentiful.

That Caddy is a beautiful old boat, though. V-12 makes it rare. If it was a V-16, it would be rarer still. The V-16 was doomed from the start, as it was introduced at the bottom of the Great Depression. GM kept it under wraps, letting it leak to the public that they were working on a new V-12. Then, they knocked everybody's socks off when they unveiled the "Incomparable" V-16 in 1930.

Restoration has been done. She’s a beauty. If I had the money I’d buy it and donate it.

A caddy really isn't our style.

Find a GM Futurliner and start using those (and paint them orange)



You can even take it on the road as a display transport and let those shameful few down in cootlumbia see what a trophy looks like

The "Paw Bearer" is way better!

GameDay Greatness: Clemson's tailgate not same without Paw Bearer
A converted Cadillac hearse has been a fixture at Clemson tailgate parties until this season. But the Paw Bearer is expected to ride again.
