Hi stumpee, hello everyone,

Welcome to TOC.

Big difference between a fifth wheel. ↓



and a Continental kit. ↓



Quote: ........ any suggestions are welcomed.
It will have to be custom made, to fit your car. Not cheap.

No. Found it on "Google Images" and put it up as an example of an actual Continental.

This is the one in my profile.

I've seen the Continental kit on your car, but it was a long time ago, must have been a dealer option at the time.
Keep looking you'll find it,
Good Luck

Not in '82. Actually, not since the early sixties.
