Peppercorn was a cool VW show just over the channel in Kent UK… it was put on by real old school VW enthusiast and we loved to jump over and participate, we visited that show frequently! Fond memories!!
I drove over my beige 51 “perfect” split… that car is almost 20 years in Japan now!
This was the edition we traveled with Robert, Jose and Geert Mommen… what a fun weekend it was, we had a ball! Sadly Robert is no longer…:(
Trying out the new bike I brought over…:)
Keith Seume checking on the 51 split… made a nice feature back then!
This was a year later, the year I traveled alone, but had a great ball with my German friend Jorn Eckermann and also the year I came very close friend with Jimmy from Brussels… good times!.
Yes its still the same schwimmwagen I own today…
Happy weekend and keep’on dreaming of those long gone days… go through pictures and recall memories… that’s why pictures exist anyway!
This week we got our rear corners from the bottom up to the waste line for your early bay window bus (T2a) with the correct bulge for the splash guards!
We deliver the complete corners from bottom up to rain gutters under our part no. (BBT 0891-355, 0891-356, 0891-357 and 0891-358), but they’re quite costly, if you need only the lower part!
We also have the corners for your split window bus, under our part no. (BBT 0890-362 & 0890-372) and we know they’ve been modified to do the job on early bay windows. But these days are over now! Use the correct corner for the correct bus… BBT’s new corners are perfect quality and fit!

Jamie Mellish is a real well happy customer now and just finished his splittie! All BBT parts off course!
The car is a 1952 Crotch-Cooler Split Bug, 4” narrowed beam, dropped spindles, BBT Sprintstars and bumpers, 2” dropped springplates, and splines rotated to give a good drop (6 outers drop, 5 inners raised as far as Jamie could count them…:))
Thanks for the pictures Jamie!
