It seems that Corona times are here to stay for a while … time to change things that probably should have been changed a long time ago… this always reminds us what curious creature a human being really is…
Well the good news is that the statistics of most countries are going down, or at least are stabilizing…. sad things are people still die every day which shouldn’t be so…
Here in Western Europe we now start discussing face masks , while very common on the streets in Asia, in Europe only this pandemy give us some face masks on the street… but now goverments start talking that we should wear them more… for most people it will be a big mental change…
The only conclusion is that you wont’ have to wear a facemask to protect yourself, but not to infect somebody else…. it will be a courtesy, nothing more nothing less….
Really I wonder how many people will “adapt” to the face masks now… weird stories….:)
Meanwhile you do not need a face mask to check our cool new products and our highlights this week…. enjoy “your” BBT News, we made it for you….:)
We add the little repair panels for the Bay window D posts, D posts are actually the posts along rear tail gate and engine lid.
D posts seem to rust and rot frequently down below. Partially we could write it off to the engineering, as a lot of dirt can be saved up there and can’t go anywhere. But also battery acid is frequently the “killer” of your lower D posts…
We have both models for early and for late Bay window bus, make sure to choose the right ones and make a complete and very nice repair with a minimum on cost.
Give your bus the original looks again, also at her D posts…

This week we’re putting a spotlight on perhaps one of the sexiest cars ever made – the beloved Karmann Ghia..
Our attention goes to one of the little details often missing or looked over being the bumper bracket covers. With
any mild or serious restoration these covers will need replacing. Look no further because we’ve got you covered!
Below you’ll find 2 different types for the front – EU and US/Export (over rider) each in a right/left hand version.
As well as the rear covers, again each in a left & right hand version. Please note the rear only features one type.

0015-500 – Karmann Ghia -07/71 – Bumper brackets cover rear left

When you’ve replaced your bracket covers we would also recommend replacing the rubber seal that offers protection for
the gap between the covers and the body. Without these rubber strips, chances are the bracket cover may damage the
paintwork. These are always sold as a pair.
