This week we saw a bidding war in Europe between different countries for the best tourist program.
Thanks God the European Community ended this with pretty straight rules and orders to follow….

We’re all in danger, we’re all fighting Covid, except when we can travel?
Tourist money is GOLD, so in that case the virus is not so important anymore?

You stay home and wrench on your VW, with a cool one just around the corner in the fridge, no lining up?
Well let BBT help you with that, we add this week very interesting products….

…. just like every week, welcome to BBT News.

Let’s start this week with inner door handles for your splitty bus.

With the long weekend ahead, a poor weather forecast and plenty of time to spend in the workshop, we focus on a few products which would be perfect to install during this time.
As you’re probably aware our SWT assortment is expanding every week.
The SWT range consists of parts exactly manufactured as per the factory guidelines with correct sizing, perfect gaps, edges, lips, channels and pressings.

We list the items with our product references as well as the OEM numbers.

If you drive a late splitbus double door, RHD or LHD with doors on the LHS and need a rear quarter panel, then look no further.
You will be pleased to know that after carefully removing this panel on your bus, the SWT replacement will slot right in place with no adjustment to be made.

Our next shout out is for the owners or restorers of the same type of bus as the panel above.
If you want perfection, no dents, rust or any previous signs of battle scars then look no further.

The SWT long side panel for the RHS fits like a glove and will put a smile on your face like never before.

0890-358 – Side panel long right – Bus 03/63-07/66

And finally, for the owners of an early single cab, we haven’t forgotten  you. If your pick up has had a hard life, showing various bruises and you feel it’s time to give it a fresh look then this quarter panel might just be thing for you – you won’t regret it!
