Janus,

It's a German trailer coupling. You are missing the bracket and pins.
Pascal has the pictures.
Kind regards, Henk

Wow! Real heavy duty! Should be easy to fit a modern truck-size VBG coupling on there :)

You welcome, Johan!

Frode,
The coupling would be better, if the bolts were attached to the side of the rear axle instead of the back.
But luckily I didn't pull it off yet. :D
Best regards,
Pascal
