Air! We need air… to breath…
Too many shows, loading up, driving down, attending & coming home, unloading, working and again….

Almost a weekly routine this time of the year.
Sometimes we just need to STOP and breath, right?

Air… even more important to our engines,
Our Volkswagens need air so badly to cool down our engines.

And we need our engines to drive to the shows…
Welcome in the air-cooled VW world, welcome to the BBT News.

Let us start this week with this one year only interior mirror.
That is right, this mirror fits only a 1968 model year bay Window bus.

Completely different than later model years.
1968 mounts with two screws.

Later model years being clamped against the roof.
Too many times chrome has pitted, glass faded, broken or simply missing.

Now we offer a perfect reproduction.
Our first delivery sold out even before hitting the shelves!

Comes with the little round rubber buffer to avoid vibration against your windshield.

It goes up all the way till behind your dog leg.

We celebrate the 75th anniversary of the VW bus this weekend in Hannover.
It’s going to be a massive party thrown by Volkswagen Werk Hannover.

10.000 buses are expected to party along.
We will be there with several buses from the BBT collection.

We do not stop or retire yet.
We continue to bring you more parts.

To give our Classic Volkswagens an easy life.
With less stress for their owners.

Happy birthday VW bus, make it a special one!
Welcome to our weekly BBT News.

Besides our 2, 3 and 4 bow roof rack we now lso stock  the 6-bow full length roof rack.
They do not come any longer!

6 bows cover the total length of your roof.
Our roof racks fits Split as well as Bay window buses, all the way from 1950 till 1979.

Our roof racks are manufactured in Westfalia style, use proper U-profile bows.
Produced in highly polished stainless steel with lot of eyes to detail.

We deliver our roof racks “fold down boxed” to avoid unnecessary damage and shipping expenses.

Due to its length this can only be shipped through a trucking company.

 We changed supplier for this repair panel for the front inner wheel arch for your Bay window.
Better fit helps for a better repair.

Never compare a repair panel with a restoration panel.
But this is simply better and more user friendly than the one we carried before.
