This is a rebuilt fibreglass camping trailer that I added VW bits to match the bus. Wheels are 10'' Mini wheels with VW hubcaps spot welded to the mini hubcaps.

Then moved onto an Eriba, a trailer that sleeps 3/caravan.

What I bought from a guy who used it behind his RV when traveling the USA, then later he used it for hauling garbage:

This is after I brought it home with my Jetta...scary! The wheel is a castor and since I backed it up, it's pointing 180-degrees around.

After I removed the sides and made legs for it:

The trailer behind my Squareback being used by our club chef:

I've since added a stop light on the back left corner. I think it came from an old school bus; it has the word "STOP" molded in the glass lens that I bought from a classic car swap meet (the item is genuinely old). My plan is to straighten the mounting points, make a receiver hitch for the Bus, and then tow this behind it. Some day...

All these pics are making me jealous. Does anyone know who makes a tow hitch for a bus? Where can I find one? Are they all custom made?

So where would one find a hitch for a 71? And would having an adapter for a bug motor matter?

I have a 58 beetle front clip that use to be a body shop display that I am hoping to start on this summer and turn into a trailer to pull behind my 70 westy or my rabbit .

Reese makes a class II hitch ( 1.25 inch ) 350/3500lb that bolts on to the frame of a late bay. Reese Omni II. I'm on my bike tonight or I would go out and get the part #. I got longer bolts to install it. 10m x 150 thread, 17mm hex head. Almost any adjustable hitch would work. If the mounting holes don't line up, just drill your. 35 $ from pick & pull
