1948 Flexible Clipper

The script originally called for a 1990s recreational vehicle, but Sonnenfeld wanted something more classic and asked Rasmussen to help him find it. His searched yielded two 1948 "Flexible Clippers," which were used in the 40s and 50s by such companies as Greyhound and Trailways. At one time there were more than 5,000 "Clippers" in use by the fleets of about 1,000 bus companies.

Since then, the "Flexibles" have been used in federal parks as shuttles and remained popular with many smaller bus operators. Nowadays, "Flexible Clippers" are extremely popular as recreational vehicles, so much so that it has spawned an international organization of "Clipper" owners.

Of the two buses Rasmussen found, one was being used for a tour company, Cumberland Tours, in Nashville, Tennessee, while the other had been put out to pasture. Both were in reasonably good shape when the production acquired them and were then overhauled to suit the demands of the film. The seats were stripped away, the bodies restored and painted an eye-catching red and cream (they were originally blue and white) and outfitted like vintage motor homes.

Other exterior appointments included "eyelid" shades over the headlights, a chrome ladder up the back and a wooden roof rack to complete its distinctive classic look. The second bus was completely rebuilt, including engine and drive train, with only about 60 percent of the interior restored. It was used mainly for stunt work and second unit exterior shots.
