This website is dedicated to the C-class American Clipper
motorhome. The American Clipper was built by the American Clipper Corporation in Morgan Hill,
California between 1974 and 1980. Almost five thousand 21' American Clippers and twenty-five 24' American Clippers were
built before the
company went out of business in 1980. The American Clipper Corporation was founded and ran by Irv Perch, a man with a vision. Earlier he had
created the Aristocrat trailer, and after his American Clipper adventure he
created the "Fold-n-Roll" trailer. All three products were innovative,
well designed and very well built. Mr. Perch was recently inducted in the
RV Hall of Fame. Currently, most American
Clippers are still in great shape and continue to cruise the American, Canadian and Mexican highways.
For many
owners it is the motorhome of choice. The outside of the coach is made out of
5 monolithic pieces of fiberglass and with the proper maintenance these
24+ year old motorhomes can easily last another 20 years!
