Yay!! Its good to see Sarah!!

[@NOMADNEWSTV]

I know, right!! Thanks, Karli, you're awesome as usual!!

[@mariogalvez5164]

Thanks for showing us your home! I love your rig!

[@charlespatterson9138]

I have a 77 rear kitchen clipper like yours I got it for 100 dollars I love the history on these it was in great condition but it was stolen from me I got it back and they had left roof vents open causing water damage on the ceiling and painted the paneling white and not done good at all also rats were in there when I recovered it but I'm not giving up on her she still runs good and rest can be fixed it does make me sad tho to see how nice yours is inside I'm happy for you lol but I wish mine was still that nice inside thanks for sharing as I'm working on it now this video gave me.motivation

[@chrisreed26]

Great video!! Awesome lady!! Always loved those American Clippers..such quality. They were ahead of their time really..with certain features nobody else had such as the "ledge" storage area above the living area that can be seen from the overhead bed..The distinctive smooth fiberglass exterior that very few had in 1978..yet after all these years...no delamination like new ones today have..How many newer Class C RV's do you see where the front overhead bed area is falling apart due to water damage? Funny how a former Tesla employee bought an RV from the age of no computerized engines!! Back when they were simple to work on!

[@NOMADNEWSTV]

Yeah, and it’s crazy that her Clipper is only 20ft long but it seems so spacious and roomy. My Rig is three feet longer than hers but her Rig seems like it has a lot more room than mine.

[@reeseash1671]

WOW! I was so excited to find this video! I have a '77 Clipper and I absolutely love it :) My 13 year old son and I moved out of our downtown Seattle apartment this past October and hit the road in our Clipper (which we named Gned Ryerson). We spent several months traveling and it was amazing. We'll be stationary for a while and I have a lot of plans for updates to it, but it really has been very well kept up. I feel very lucky to have found it. I'm currently designing my own position in a company that will allow me to travel in it frequently. I've met a few Clipper owners along the way and they all love their rig. Even at over 40 years old, no one complains about them. Surely a testament to how well they were designed! Thanks for posting :) ~Reese

[@NOMADNEWSTV]

Hey, Clippers are beautiful old Rigs. I have my classic Dodge that I’m actually selling...but I really love the old clippers

[@fidelsandoval8622]

Hi do you have a clipper for sale?

[@axelzilm778]

Hello Sarah that is a bute of a clipper , you've made it so homey and a reflection of you so cool I just love it , I'm so inspired I've just this week acquired a 22 g30 glendale and exited to make it home , nice jackalope they are so rare to see in the wild now , safe travels Peace

[@charlespatterson9138]

They took the captain chairs out too lol just noticed yours so ours are exact same models n floor plan

[@outside926]

I love how she kept it the way it came. Love her style💚 great video.

[@NOMADNEWSTV]

Sarah’s all about keeping it time sensitive and original. With all the remodeling and renovation going on with older RV’s it’s good to see

[@omerbayrak1808]

I loved this clipper

[@austech360]

I have a '76 Clipper. It's in California, and I need to prepare it to drive 2000 miles to missouri. The carb has been giving me the business! Damn Thermobog!

This one just had the engine pulled and completely rebuilt

[@austech360]

@@NOMADNEWSTV Has it been changed to Throttlebody Injection? or is it still running the Thermoquad as per stock?

Super clean clipper I just was blessed with a 1977 american clipper love it and it is in awesome shape with the org 440 motor cheers

[@NOMADNEWSTV]

Awesome, congratulations 👏🏼

[@Countdown-ct7iv]

It never ceases to amaze me how someone living in America can buy one of these for a few hundreds or thousands and basically have a fully furnished roof over their heads. Really the land of opportunity, if this was in my country you would be robbed of everything just because everyone would love to have one, old or new because houses are fricking expensive and just having that alone would be like a dream come true. All the way from Trinidad and Tobago i'm telling you, i love these things.

[@NOMADNEWSTV]

Hey 👋🏼 Thanks 🙏🏼 Matt!!

[@jeffcuevas5918]

I have the exact same rv and I'm restoring it as we speak. 440 and I'm putting a efi and a 513 overdrive transmission in her. Be on the road soon.

[@NOMADNEWSTV]

Awesome would love to do a tour video of her if you’re ever in SoCal

One just went up for sale today where I live and it looks to be in excellent shape. I wish I had the money!

luv it, just bought me one 1978 all it needed is a rear kitchen counter missing stove, 40,000 original miles cab almost perfect, top air conditioner needs work, i could not pass this up 400.00 w/ new tires, cant wait to start working on it, oh yea solar panel, only one, leaving cali going up the coast.. peace.

[@NOMADNEWSTV]

I’m in SoCal what part of Cali are you in?

[@jamesstan4678]

FYI for older Dodge and Chrysler Possible on your firewall there is a reck tangle white thing with 4 wires on it. Another part is metal square thing with small triangle wire connector on it. Keep a spare one of each in you're gluve box. Price should be under $35.00 fore both. The 4 wire thing, white in color is a ballast resistor .,

[@NOMADNEWSTV]

Good to know

[@brianbobias]

Why?????

[@richardwilliams3152]

Yeah those ballast resistor could go out any time, it was so common that they would sell them in Kmart.

[@philipzimmerman6179]

It's so the ballast remains correctly resisted!👍. Be safe you g chickie! Hope to be joining that crowd. Have an awesome machine. Ready to retire.

[@creativehearts7127]

Very nice,,,I have a sportman dodge 1977,,those 440 engines can reading haul..you can tow a trailer with those,if you have a tow hitch....engines are sometime use for hot rods..

[@NOMADNEWSTV]

I have a 440 in my Rig as well, but mine is a 440-3, Sarah has the 440-1, which one do you have in your Sportsman?

Yes, they all went to the Slabs after RTR I had to come back to LA and get some work done but I’m hoping to join them in the Slabs soon!

[@David-rx2to]

Hey Rav, Great interview! I think you are in love...with the Clipper! All those close ups and slow pans of every detail...is it just making a detailed video record of a classic piece of Americana, or is it love?

[@NOMADNEWSTV]

Haha 😆 Thanks 🙏🏼 David actually I just wanted to make one decent tour video, unlike all the half ass ones I had done before. Trying to get my footing on doing tour videos for my channel’s future.

[@David-rx2to]

Well, you're off to a good (re) start. Your interviews are great. You ask pertinent questions and you let your guest speak without verbally trampling all over them. Keep up the good work!

[@rachellamm5662]

Hey Sarah, this is a new clipper owner here 😁 same year as you. I was wondering if you ever bought a parts clipper? I have a back up parts rv and just putting it out there that if you are looking for parts for trade or purchase let me know. 😊

[@victorialathos8194]

Thinking of getting a 1977 Clipper. I’d the difficulty finding parts s major drawback? Wondering if this should keep us from buying it?

[@Hemi_the_BlackSheep]

it is so clean. my OCD wants to reach through the screen and rip off all of the stickers. AGH

[@NOMADNEWSTV]

stickers are all over peoples rigs that live in them full time.

[@jedk9523]

these make good donators to trucks and cars if they have 440s, I feel bad for her if it has the carter thermoquad

[@danajohnson6273]

I’m looking at one in a few days in excellent condition... I had a 10 year old Dodge Magnum and it was riddled with issues for three long years! So I’m leary of another Dodge. Seems they built amazing large engines though. I’m wondering how I can tweak this to live in it in the AZ summers. How is the insulation in these? I might need to re-insulate. Anyone have any advice or input?

[@NOMADNEWSTV]

It's a fiberglass shell it will stay much cooler than a tin shell. I have a similar Rig for sale
