This was at Mid-America Motorworks FunFest 2007... says it's a Carback. Mounted on a 1967 Bug.



yes! this is something like what i saw. I want to try and get one for my square. I think that would make camping really fun. Smile
Now i have to find one. Pray


A friend of mine Sal has one of these beetle tents for sale. I sold it to him last year but he sold the car it was going on and now wants to sell the tent. It was NOS when I got it a few years back.

I remember that one. Blue Nelson drove that Beutler Porsche all the way across the country and slept in the roof tent on the way.

There was a company in the 60s that made a rooftop tent called Air Camping, would fit on a bus or bug.
