About American Trucks and Vans

American Trucks and Vans is the new, unified brand for a legacy of custom truck and van building that began in California in 1971. For over 50 years, we’ve crafted vehicles for work, play, and adventure.

Now operating as divisions: American Camper Shells (ACS), American Camper Works (ACW), and American Van Works (AVW), we’re united under one name: American Trucks and Vans. This does not change our commitment to exceptional customer service, product quality, and creative customization which remains in our DNA.
