The Bug

[Penney H. & Mike E.]

Saw this several weeks ago in Port Angeles WA, it is a home made trailer, it was for sale by owner at a RV shop and they said it was molded fiberglass but I doubt it, it certainly is fiberglass but not sure someone would make a mold for a single tailer. Called "the Bug". It's small enough it looks like a large motorcycle could pull it!

Wow! It looks molded. Neat looking. How much was it selling for? Did it look like it had a Queen sized bed?

Looks like a clone of the "Doz N Go" (<----not sure of exact spelling). The DNG is molded fiberglass.

Edited to add: There's just been a referral to one recently. Here is the thread:

I remember there being a bed inside, and then open storage cubbies at the small end.

Is there any way to layup glass "without" a mold?

That tiny trailer has an AC mounted on top of it!

okay - here is some more info. The guy that made it made several, so likely it is molded, then decided to stop making them, is just trying to sell for what he put into them.. Weighs 400#, costs $1200, has a roof vent and tiny shelf inside, a custom cut mattress for it is an extra $100. If someone is interested the place to contact is Mobuilt RV Repair, 360-457-4101, they are just letting him put one there to try to sell it for him. They do not know the exact measurements but I guess if there was interest they could go measure it.

The ultimate light-weight!

PS - Ron, you probably know more than I do, but I believe fiberglass can be layer up on a frame, or temporary mold (like working with paper mache) folks around here build one of a kind small boats, but obviously this little trailer looks too rounded for that method.
