Anything different or suggestions to improve?  

Please let us know on,

Our parts do not change.
Every week we keep informing you about what's NEW. 

Welcome to BBT NEWS.
Later model bus had tail gates with springs.
Early buses used a rod to keep that tailgate open.

If your bus is 55-63 or build in Brazil up to 1992 you need this rod.
Plied, broken or simply missing now we offer the perfect replacement.

Comes with its anti-rattle rubber BBT # 0157-604
Brand new proud BBT production.
We enlarge our BBT Ignition wire set program.
Our stock ignition wires in black or most popular colors family enlarge.

New additions come with a 60cm long open-end distributor cable.
A lose connector comes along so you can make your distributor cable to your desired length.

Very handy when you want to move the ignition coil to your firewall or "out of sight" behind your fan shroud.
Available in all popular colors with black caps or black cables with brown caps.

Our entire line of ignition wire sets HERE
Up To 1957 Beetles and Ghia's used very particular hardware to attach the accelerator cable to the roller-pedal.
We bring you a completely new mounting kit now.

That is right, the special pin, washer and cotter pin are now available as set.
Missing many times, there is no need to search for solutions anymore.

The only way to do it right is the original way.
Finally you can mount your accelerator cable again like it should.
Karmann Ghia Lowlights are a magical world for VW spare parts aficionados as our BBT crew.

Up to 1957 Lowlight Ghias had taillight lenses in two pieces. 
The glass lens with a separate chrome bezel.

58-59 lowlights use a one-piece plastic lens with molded in chrome frame.
Today we add the rubber for the early 56-57 model sitting between glass and chrome bezel.

Longer time available on special order, we deliver off the endless BBT shelves now.
Sold by the pair.

All Karmann Ghia taillight seals HERE
BBT News Team wish you a splendid summer weekend!

11 july 2024 - NEW

Nothing is guaranteed.
Nothing more unpredictable as Western European weather.

One hour nice and warm, next raining and windy.
We've seen it all this summer, or was it just this week?

The only good thing about unpredictable weather?
Perfect garage time!

Wrench that VW beauty, finish that project!
And when the weather allows, take it for a spin.

BBT parts are here to help.
Welcome to BBT NEWS.
Bay window front brake hoses hold in place by this bracket.
Sits under the nut from the upper Ball Joint.

The brake hose pass through this bracket hold by the clip HERE
Ball Joints for bay window bus HERE
On the front of your frame head, you have an inspection cover.
The inspection cover covers the hole to remove your shift rod.

We add the gasket for the Type 3 inspection cover today.
For the Beetle inspection cover, you can find the gasket HERE

Sealing your frame head inspection cover is very important to keep water and dust out of your tunnel.
These two self-adhesive foam gaskets sit on the shut off valves from your 1968 and later beetle fresh airbox.
Only for non-blower fresh air boxes. 

The foam gaskets help the shut off valves to control fresh air flows to your dashboard.
When foam gaskets are missing, or worn-out, fresh air keeps on blowing out of your dashboard.
We do carry self-locking spindle nuts for early beetles HERE
We add now self-locking spindle nuts for 63-67 Split window bus. 

These self-locking spindle nuts replace the double-nut & thrust-washer system.
Perfect for a more accurate and easier front wheel bearing adjustment. 

Comes in one pair, one for the left and one for the right side.
Our entire spindle nut family HERE
BBT NEWS team wish you a cool "wrenching" weekend.
