Re: [VAL] 1953 Silver Streak Clipper

Tom:

   The most interesting feature on this SS Clipper is the two square 
opening top hinged rear windows, which appear to be factory installed. 
They are different from the typical fixed (unopenable) rear "D" shaped 
plexiglas windows that matched those on the front of this trailer.  The 
use of opening windows in the rear suggests the company was addressing 
customer complaints about lack of fresh air in the rear bedroom.  I 
think within a year, the SS end windows changed from fixed "D" shaped 
plexiglas to combination units having smaller squarish fixed center 
panes and vertically hinged operable outer windows at both ends, which 
improved interior ventilation.  Neat trailer!

Best regards,
