Friend of da Houze Eric discovered this Type 3 squarebacks burried by the weeds somewhere in Central Oregon…

How cool does it look??? This is 2020!

VW history is written… still today!

Write your VW history, but don’t let it overgrow by weeds…:)

The winner takes it all… but last elections for president in USA don’t seem to have a winner.
Not a lot of people win with the new lockdown in Europe, the virus seems worse than ever…

Neither a winner with all terrorist attacks in France and Austria…
Customs and police did a mega record catch of illegal cocaine this week in port of Antwerp, 900.000.000€ of street value, probably more.

No big win  for those criminals at all.
In all of this turmoil BBT news is here again, as every Friday.

Several new products and updates our VW world need in our eyes.
All for you to win… the winner takes it all…. in VW land, that is….

With all Brazilian kombis imported to Europe last couple of years we got greater demand for new steering boxes exactly for these models.
After our last company visit with Ampri Steering box manufacturers in Sao Paolo Brasil, we did some quality improvements to make their steering boxes usable on Brazilian made VW buses operating on European roads..

We’re happy to say we distribute this Ampri steering box now exclusively for Europe.
This steering box fits Brazilian buses ONLY, made up to 1983.

Sorry this steering box doesn’t fit German built buses, please do not try.
We’re currently developing rebuild kits for German model steering box, and hope to present you somewhere next year.

1368-205 Steering box – Bus Brasil -83

Longer available through our shop program, now we made it  a real BBT part number.
Tow bar to tow your beetle or buggy behind your tow rig.

It always fascinated us how it works, but the sure thing is, it does.
By far the easiest way to transport your beetle.

Unfortunately not road legal in all  European countries, check your local road regulations first.

4850-050 Tow Bar – Beetle, KG, Type 181, Buggy (not 1302/1303)

For the real hard core engine builders among you we  stock now the brand new phosphate coated Engle lifters.
Exact the same as our 1631-500 but coated with a high quality phosphate coating.

This coating adds an extra lubricating principle, that extends the wear life of the engine block and lifters.
The phosphate coating adds micro size pock marks that hold oil therefore adding to the lubrication to the lifter and engine block.

Sold as a set of eight.

1631-550 Lifters ENGLE Type 1 28mm (100gr) 8 pieces – Phosphate coating

We re-modelled our ever popular engine compartment firewall isolation kit.
This kit comes now without the hole for the (useless) diagnose plug on later model beetles.
The quality, feel and texture are still the same, only the hole is deleted now, simply because out of popular demand.

2311 Firewall insolation kit- Beetle (3 pieces)

We’re happy we can supply all the above, and working on more.
We don’t win elections once every 4 years, but we try to win on a everyday base, and working hard for that.

Suggestions or reactions always welcome.
BBT News team wishes you a very happy and relaxed weekend, stay safe and healthy.

BBT Spain shop manager Steve is selling his little baby.

What all started as an unfinished project we brought from the States Steve decided to call it his and finish accordingly… he spend over 1000hours of labor!

This little baby started life as a 13 window deluxe bus, when we bought it somebody grafted an original Samba roof on top… nicely done… the roof that was…

Steve replaced both sides (the long panels) and the rain gutters and put in a new BBT engine lid.

To make it real nice this baby is rotisserie painted, inside out, under and above…

Mechanical Steve build a complete new 1600cc Dual port engine and rebuild the gearbox.

Also a complete new brake system is installed to secure stopping and protection from the investment.

Complete new sunroof mechanism,

Check out the interior to drool all over, high class!

Top of the bill this baby has a full air-condition system that works just perfect!

Bus is currently registered in Europe and there’s no tax or duty to pay inside EU…

This baby is just one cool cruizer all ready to go!

If you’re on the market for a bus, this is a No Brainer….
