Very welcome to our weekly BBT Newsletter. This week we present a couple of real cool new products, proudly & privately produced for BBT. And this is just the start in the upcoming weeks, we’ll have several private productions that finally make the scene. Very exciting. With quality as the driving force, we’re happy we can glue a real good price to it!

It all just started when we needed one of those and couldn’t find one! The market was dry, nobody seemed to care because they “hardly broke”….that’s pushing a wrong button to us, we searched high and low till we scored two NOS ones with their brackets and had them sent off to our gear mount manufacturer right away. You can see the result below, a perfect reproduction from the early Bay window (T2a) nose transmission mount and its proper bracket.

Because we wanted it exactly like the original, we’ve  made a study on the rubber composition of the original one. With those data we could make the rubber composition very very close to the original (actually slightly better because of technology) we’re very happy with the general outcome and can guarantee this as any other BBT produced product.

We,@ BBT, are bored with the kind of front hub grease caps that were  available for a long time. To be honest we hardly used the existing aftermarket on our own cars. Instead we preferred NOS or used ones. We thought it was about time to make our owns and we fully succeeded. We made them in the same material as original, with the  same material thickness and in the same size, the same look and  the same finishing. Simple and perfect exactly like Volkswagen did so many years ago.

We tested a LOT of samples during production set up, made DHL and FedEx the first companies to make a few bucks on these by flying them back and forth to the factory every time with necessary remarks. But we kept up and thanks to the everlasting input from manufacturer and our BBT team, we succeeded and are able to offer another top-notch quality product equal to the original. All to keep our beloved Volkswagens on the road, because that’s our main concern!

Finally we have the good front hub grease cap again available for most popular Classic Volkswagens. Order yours now!
