This Is A Very Interesting Trailer: Memphis, Tennessee

 Eric and I stopped for gas.  This trailer in the lot next to the gas station -



I've never seen anything like this.

It may be an early 5th Wheel.

There are no make or model names on the side.







The front doesn't have a
manufacturer's name.







The hitch is on the front of the trailer.



Wires for electrical connections are accessed from the underside of the trailer's overhanging sleeping area.











The lines of the trailer are
streamlined, futuristic.











This cannot be an RV without
identifying information.





I walk around the trailer again, looking for any identifying markings.  






There's a small plate near
the trailer's door

A quick internet search reveals that this is The Harmon Shadow.  Check out the link to see how the trailer was attached to the roof of the car.  

This is a great find!  I hope to see a Harmon Shadow at an RV Show someday.
