I am starting with a strange bus
a Rocar Satelit used by Sibiu Military Music
It would be a good idea to make a photo gallery of romanian military vehicles other than the combat ones. Your oppinion?

I think support vehicles are one of the most neglected aspect of military history. A historical survey of Romanian non-combat military vehicles would be most welcome.

And another image:
a wreck of a military ambulance / pharmacy / hospital somewhere in Romania
The chassis is a SR 113 or 114. Maybe someone have more details. If no, use it as a contribution for a future albun called "Romanian Army vehicles 1947-2007"

I checked a Cadillac web site and could not find this model:

I need to identify the car 100%, I cannot guess.

The one in your phomo must have been confiscated by the army.
The one you sawe in my photo was "saved" due to the fact that his ouner was a military doctor.
