Hi I'm in the market for a well-maintained Clipper if anyone is selling near LA let me know!

Saw this ad and fell in love but I think I may have missed the boat

Thanks!

GREETINGS,

I REPLACED THE ORIGIONAL REFER IN MY CLIPPER.  HOPE SOMEONE  LOCAL BAY AREA CAL CAN USE IT.  I BELIEVE THE COILS ARE BLOGGED OR CLOGGED.  COULDN'T FIND ANYONE LOCAL TO REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT COILS.  COSMETICALLY, IT IS IN REAL NICE SHAPE.
WOULD REALLY LIKE TO SEE A CLIPPER OWNER WHO MIGHT BE ABLE TO USE IT AT LEAST FOR PARTS! 

GONE TO A NEW HOME!

Here's one on Reno Craigslist for $2000. https://reno.craigslist.org/rvs/d/dearing-dodge-american-clipper/7201883025.html. The ad says it used to run strong but has been sitting for 4 years and needs to be towed. No battery and needs fuses.The outside looks clean and it looks like they removed the cab-over sleeper inside. If you are handy, this might be something to look at.

Looking for a well loved clipper to care for and keep alive. Please contact me at dauberasg@gmail.com if you know of any club members selling or you have a Clipper for sale.

Hi,

I know it been a long time, but I do still have that window.

No I havent found one yet. I know this is an old message, hopefully something is available?

I do have California smog to contend with, but for the right clipper at the right price I can work with that

I've never really used my roof air conditioner much as we usually boondock and camping where we do, our camping spots are usually above 7000 feet. I have noticed that the air conditioner compressor cycles on and off quite a bit. I inserted a temperature probe in the vent and measured a temperature of around 49 degrees with an outside temperature of around 86 degrees.  From what I read this is around the middle range of what it should be putting out, so I didn't believe it was cycling because of low refrigerant. I decided to go up on the roof and clean the coils. I took off the cover and being careful, I used a hose and sprayed the coils thoroughly making sure to not spray the motor. I couldn't believe the dirt that came out of the coils. After that, I opened the little flip cap on the fan motor to oil the fan motor. Unfortunately, it disintegrated in my hands. I filled with oil, and then sealed back the top with a blob of silicone to prevent dirt from getting inside the motor. After putting everything back together, I went back inside to see if the cleaning would make any noticeable changes. By this time, the outside temperature was 99 degrees. Output temperature was still around 49 degrees but this time the compressor was not cycling like before. From what I have read, an RV roof air conditioner will cool the inside around 20 degrees cooler than the outside. Looks like the dirty coils were overheating the compressor motor causing it to cycle on and off often. I also have a original can of R-12 refrigerant if I need to add in the future. Good thing to have as they haven't produced them since the mid 90's and they go for around $40.00 a can on e-Bay. Pretty amazing to me the system still works well after 43 years with some neglect in between those years.

Hi Frank,

I worked on the interior during the winter resealing vents and replacing most of the ceiling panels. The interior is in pretty good shape for being 43 years old. A PO had repainted the interior and took out the carpet and installed the tile floor.  I had to repair part of the frame by the big window in the kitchen due to past water damage. Luckily the water damage was limited to only part of the window frame and panel and was pretty easy to repair. As you can see the kitchen is original except for the paint. The original water heater and fridge still work great. I did install a new pressure relief valve on the water heater for safety and I turn it off once the water is heated. Do you have any pictures of your Clipper?

Take care!
