On feb 17 1972 the 15.000.034 VW beetle ever was produced, this day the VW beetle production surpassed the Model T Ford production and became leader as most produced car ever.
For this special occasion VW launched a very limited series of production beetle called in German “The Weltmeister” (world champion) in other countries this special model had different names, in Holland and Belgium it became the marathon edition, in the US it became the Baja edition…
The beetle we present you here was brought in by us from Dallas Texas, and is a US version from this famous “Weltmeister”. Specific in color, wheels and a load of other accessories…
This is a very original example, first paint with a very high “wawh” patina…
Exactly like an old beetle should look in our eyes…
not perfect, but so nice to enjoy…
Daily driver anyone? This is a head turner…
Inside clean and original like the whole car
Will you take place behind this steering wheel? Imagine….
Engine runs, brakes do work, all need a service, what we can do at cost, or You can do to save the money… your choice…
Nice document about this “Weltmeister” editions provided by friend of the house Bert.

A really good Friday again, before heading home to enjoy the weekend, we’re glad to take our opportunities to give you some “food for brain” along. A short update about what we did with some of the BBT products, and what we added to our range from new parts…
First let us present you our new exploded view for our T25/T3 Vanagon catalogs, this “click and see” drawing is about the exhaust for the 1.6 liters aircooled fuel engines (1980-1982 models years), try it out, click on this drawing and be re directed to our online catalog, where you can click a red dot what you might need to get the exact picture and description of the exact part.
In our early beetle parts range we have this copper fuel line for a longer time, but for one reason (or another) it never made it to our catalogs, we adjusted this week. Perfect to replace your old worn out steel fuel line running through your chassis tunnel (chassis center section) or any other universal application.

Busy times lately… Many cars does arrives from all and every corner of the world…
We have first a Rock and rock solid 1971 Bay window, for many people the ultimate bay window, still the early bumpers, taillights and indicators, but does come with disc brakes, this is only one year, the Holley Grale? For us its a ultimate….BAY DREAMER… for sure.
Don’t look at the shadows in the paint too much, as the sun was low, light was not perfect, wintertime… In real the bus looks better, way better…
Nice and straight… we like to point out the camping tags on the dogleg, prove it was a Westfalia since new….
A decent driver cabine to take you where you want to go…
Who needs more for a nice night a sleep, and a cup a coffee in the morning… Hotel Westfalia welcomes you….
Fully operational, drives, brakes…..
Super dry every where… this is NOT your average bus, this is a real bay-dreamer….
Second we got a nice 1967 Westfalia SO 42 splittie project…
It needs all the welding, as so many splits…
Some parts missing, but do come with many parts….
First paint don’t hide anything, pure and naked, shown like it is…
Interior is mostly there, need some work as well, but at least something to start of….
Even the kitchen block do come along, mostly missing, this baby got it ….
Only the base from the drivers seat, that’s a pity, but the positive is the walk through for sure!
Trans and front axle are complete , but no engine… ready for something BIG?
Extra parts are in the bus and do come along, the missing side windows, rear bumper etc, not to bad in the end….
