Happy Sunday.
Enjoy these period schwimmwagen pictures saved up by several BBT Blog fans from the internet…
Schwimmwagen are still the most spectacular Volkswagens ever build, we suppose everybody agree on that!
Spring time full force!
You can’t deny that spring is in full force blowing all over the northern part of the globe.
It’s always the most vividly part of the year in our Volkswagen world.
All cars need to be ready for the show season what starts a little everywhere.
After two “lock down and restriction” years everybody seems to want to “fly out”…
Let’s meet up again, and ask each other how much we missed each other….
BBT continues, every Friday with new items, this Friday is no exception.
Welcome to BBT News.
Kick off this news edition in style.
Fumagalli is a Brazilian made steel cult wheel for your “Wide Five” Volkswagen.
We came across the tooling by coincidence and thought it would be nice to start up again.
The factory had other ideas and we had to battle, beg and pray to make it happen.
But we persevered, therefore we can offer you this beautiful wheel now.
Very cool looking they’re a new fresh breath of steel to hold your tires.
Available now in 5.5 x 15 with a +16 offset.
Finished in grey paint.
Soon available also in 4.5 x 15.
2596-100 Wheel Fumagalli – 5.5 x 15 – 5 hole – Grey painted
Type 3 lovers beware!
BBT decided to enlarge our product lines for Type 3 extensively.
We started with this engine mount on the back of your engines.
Used on all Type 3 models up to 1968.
For later models used as part of M code 263 what stands for a reinforced rear suspension.
Long time obsolete, now available again.
1488-910 Engine mount – Type3 -07/68, M263 07/63-07/74
More Type 3 news with these two straps to bolt down your large cooling air intake bellow.
The large cooling air intake bellow is the big rubber that connects your pulley shroud to your body on all Type 3’s made.
We sell the straps per pair, one smaller one larger diameter for a perfect fit.
The large cooling air intake bellow you can find HERE.
We bring you a real good quality gland nut to mount the flywheel on all Type 1 engines made August 1960 onwards.
There’s a lot of technology in a gland nut, way more as we thought at first.
Our new gland nuts are strong, we tested them with over 75kgs of torque, flawless.
Our gland nuts are perfect to hold your flywheel, and they’re economical priced too!
