Pour yourself a cup of coffee, sit down, lean back, relax… Breath three times deep in and out and just remember how happy we are that we can do all this…
Enjoy the simple things in life, they’re so wonderful.
Are you ready?
Welcome to BBT News this week, we’re happy to have you and will absolutely not disappoint.
Sometimes it’s not easy to convince certain factories to make certain things and we do our shares of discussions, believe us.
But this time we won…:)
We really wanted to supply the internals of the fresh airbox on the roof of your split window bus as we know and realize very very well that those parts are many many times either missing, broken or dare we say simply rusted away….
We choose to make two kits.
First kit is the complete front control flap and mechanism, which opens or closes your whole fresh air system.
The second kit comes for the both side control flaps with their mechanisms. These flaps let you choose to get the fresh air out at the rear cargo/passenger area or on the sides where it blows all over the driver and his front row passenger.
We also made a brand new exploded view from the whole fresh airbox and all its components. You can find it HERE

0890-897 Fresh airbox distributor flap mechanism – Bus 03/55-07/67 SWT
More in our Silver Weld Through High Quality metal parts line, we bring now the complete roof for the single cab pick-up truck, with rain gutters, fresh air box etc. all complete ready to mount.

Next we like to introduce our outer clamps for the split window bus front end stabilizer bar.
Originally only 1966 & 1967 German built deluxe models came with a front stabilizer.
For Brazilian Kombi they all got a front stabilizer from January 1967 onwards.
However most people like one on their bus as it improves ride quality a lot.
Front stabilizer fits on EVERY split window bus built March 1955 and up.
We’re working on the stabilizer bar itself as well and hope to have it available soon.
The two larger inner clamps we supply longer time already, all splittie stabilizer clamps you can easy find HERE

For all Karman Ghia Lovers we like to introduce our European style bumper horns.
Bumper horns, bumper guards, bumper overriders, everybody call them their own name…
But most important is that we have them now, and they might be the start to complete state of the art complete bumpers, who knows…:)
Sold each and we have both models, one fit left front & right rear, the other one fits right front & left rear.

Many Volkswagens left the factory new without a locking glove box.
We found a perfect solution for late model 1303 “Super” beetles and T25/T3 Vanagon glove box doors with this locking glove box door lock.
It can be very easy mounted with the clips from your original glove box door lock.
Ours come without clip, we will have the clip separately available soon.
Great way to protect your car papers and other valuables in your glove box and give your car a more secured safety.
Very economical priced! Check out our wholesale & quantity discounts.
We have a limited stock now (as we first wanted to make sure the quality was to our standards) but have a massive load on the way….
Order yours now!
We also have a locking glove box lot for regular late model beetle you can find HERE

We continue our walk on the Type 4 path…
For admirers of the Porsche cooling we offer this fan shroud, which has been tried and tested multiple times.
Please note, for a Type 4 engine conversion your case will need some machine work to ensure a Porsche style fan to fit.
BBT choose the “low” style conversion to ensure the engine lid of your beetle still shuts properly.
Should you want to, we can offer the service for the machine work on special request.
All further information available on easy request with your favorite BBT sales contact.
Check out this link what other parts we offer to convert your engine to a Porsche style cooling system.
