Hello everyone! I purchased a vintage camper about 10 years ago its in pretty desent shape has some waterdamage on the ceiling. Currently using it for storage but I do plan on restoring it here in the near future. It has a comode and shower gas light over the dinner table 3 burner gas stove and an ice box. Water inlet and sewer output. It has one sticker by the door that says Clipper Mfg Co. The ice box has a sticker that says Dalton-Brecheisen Mfg Co. the door window is teardrop. Camper measures 14 ft from back to tongue. I found stamped #s on tongue but dont know for sure if tongue had been replaced. #s on tongue reads 3417601055 then 2037 on opposite side don't know if it has any other #s stamped on it yet. But will get wire wheel out to see. only ones I've found are the mobile scouts that have same door window but wheel wells arent the same mine are more tear drop design. I will upload pics as soon as i figure out how to get pics loaded on here. Any help on this will greatly be appreciated. Like I said want to restore her but would like to know what i have before jumping in to it.
Thanks
Sammy65

Cool looking trailer!  Hope these help. by Simon Benton, on Flickr  Hope these help. by Simon Benton, on Flickr I will let you post the rest of the photos. If I do all of them, you will never learn/struggle  and figure out how to post. I can't navigate via my phone, but you will notice a difference when on your PC finally. I would cover that broken window(s?) as soon as you can. No time like the present. Even a piece of tape or even cardboard taped in there. Every day its open, I would think it's more chance of water entry. I look forward to your journey. Rod |

Teachndad do you know exactly what I have here from the pics? Hey Sam, Dunno. I wish I could help you more. I Haven't seen one like that before. The Clipper sticker might be the most help. Larry seemed to have some familiarity with Clippers, so maybe he can shed some light. It does have similar details like the Clipper images that bw posted. The eyebrows and windows look the same. Cheers, Rod |

I really don't know that much about Clippers. I've just heard of them. I want to ask some friends about this one. Definitely worth restoring though.
