The trailer was called a Shadow. I was on my 3rd RV when these came out.

i wouldn't place too much confidence in a hitch that is clamped to a VW rain gutter, and an air cooled lawnmower engine like the bug has wouldn't last pulling the 5th up any grade- might be why you haven't seen one very often
