Something we really wanted to make for a long time, but…
Well finally the moon fell onto our Radio Flyer (as we tend to say) and it all happened!

The factory chosen for this project produce over 10.000 E-brake handles a month!!
We started the reverse engineering from 100% NOS samples for accurate reproduction.

Both models will be available to span the entire year range from end of 1952 till 1967
Will be available soon as we approved these samples and production is started!

Another BBT exclusive in the worx!

Too hot water shrink stuff, beetles no other!

Enjoy your Sunday, tomorrow we start a new week full of VW fun!

We don’t mess up gas pipe lines in the Baltic Sea, neither can we tell you what Russia is up to next, now they seem to loose ground on the frontlines in Ukraine.

What we will bring you is our weekly news and product update to make our Volkswagen life a better one.
Welcome to our BBT News.

In development of a complete D-shape voltage regulator for pre 53 beetles and buses we finished the cover and offer it here already separately.
If your old cap has rust, dents or is simply missing we offer here the perfect replacement.

We paid tooling twice, because first tooling was too far of the original pressing for Bob so he preferred to start all over again.
This guarantees a correct visual aspect for a perfect replacement cover on your D-shape regulator.

After several test fittings we started production and are proud to offer the results here.
Complete D-regulators are in last steps of developments and will be soon available.

Double cab pick-up trucks  have their rear seat sitting on a pedestal.
We developed these pedestals in our Silver Weld Through program

Even they’re interchangeable, we decided to make both models.
Up to 1963 the front has a cut out and accepts an early front bench seat as BBT # 3400-200
1964-1979 is flat on top and accepts a barndoor front seat bench which we have in development.

For easy shipping we supply these folded down, nicely packed in a cardboard flat box, like an Ikea closet.
Some welding required for proper assembly.
Mounting tabs up to 1960 mount inwards, 1961 and later models mount outwards.

When you think you have everything , something always seems to pop up you didn’t thought about before.
This happened with our kick panel range.

We add now the last model to complete our full range of original versions.
The 1962 to 1964 model has cut outs for the late model (large) fuse box and late model (teardrop) headlight bowls, but no cut outs for the ventilation grills yet as later models tend to have.
