TBT: VW Bug fifth wheel

[Doug]

Here's a little throwback Thursday to 1974.

Did anyone every own one of these or even see one of these? I'm guessing by the lack of examples it didn't exactly work out. Maybe something about the structural integrity of the roof rails or roof in general. Or maybe marketing such a frightening idea proved difficult.

I've seen pics of that before, never seen a real one though.

Woody always ruining surprises! Lol.. I would, but now that the land yacht is renamed "hotel california" by you, then I think I'm good . Pretty cool little rig though.
