Don’t we all like the lilliput beating the giant?
Isn’t that the reason we all want Ukraine wins from Russia?
The story of David and Goliath ….
The little humble Volkswagen beetle which beats the big American muscle cars.
We love our Volkswagens and with a reason.
For BBT our love translates directly into more and better parts.
This week we have some serious new launches.
Welcome to the BBT News.
Is the emergency brake handle of your split window bus in poor condition?
Emergency brake handles on T1 buses are not engineered for eternity.
We have the solution with our new line of emergency brake handles for your splittie bus.
With three models to choose from.
52-59 handles stand under an angle to create space for your right knee for LHD buses.
1960 only handles stand straight, the floor changed before the new handle made its entry.
The new bracket on the new model cab floor made the handle sits straighter.
Although practically the same as the earlier versio, the angle of the cable receiver is different.
61-67 handles have the connector for the cable to the handle inside the cabin.
These handles sit dead straight to the cab floor.
1960 only and 61-67 models can be both used for LHD as RHD buses.
Cable receiver pin for the 61-67 model is not included but can be found HERE

Everywhere fuel lines or electric wire go through, metal rubber grommets are mandatory.
Today we add the rubber grommet to protect your 8mm fuel line or electric wire.
Originally used to guide the fuel line through your tinware on a 25Hp engine.
We see it also used for high performance engine used to pass the tinware or firewall.
Protect that fuel line or electric wire preventing fire big time.
We saw disasters on cars with not properly placed grommets more as we wanted to see.
Don’t delay, place those rubber grommets today.
Rubber grommets for 6mm fuel lines and electric wires can be found HERE
