Corona leads the headlines. Besides it’s real sad for the people affected,it will have for sure a deep hawk into our economy. Also we, at BBT, had the first signs from suppliers this week, who couldn’t get raw material or semi products out of several countries… China is slow and countries like Iran are completely closed, only future will tell where this will end ….

Today we’re still proud to present what’s new in the BBT product line since this week….

A little focus on sheet metal this week for the bus… so many new numbers…:)

Let’s start with something we made as original and still leaves you the choice to “dress” you bus in any window configuration you want.

These right inner frames for the side windows of your splittie bus come in 3+1.

The frame for the rear side window is separate from the three in front of it …..

Bright engineering ! Thank you Volkswagen…:)

This exact panel  for left side (if your bus is LHD) we stock under BBT ref 0890-232

0890-233 Side window inner panel / complete for 4 windows Right – Bus -07/67

If you have the panel above on the right side, your loading doors are on the left, like most RHD configurations. We have this panel ready for your two windows behind the cargo door.

For the right side we stock this panel under BBT ref 0890-235

If you want to make a double door, you need the left side and the right side in this configuration.

With the new season round the corner we want to take the opportunity to make a big shout out in March to check your fuel lines.
Each year we see devastating pictures on the world-wide web from cars burning down mostly due to old worn fuel lines. We know that
around this time of the year most of you ’petrol heads’ are starting to wake up your beloved classics. Give them a maintenance, clean the
interior, polish those gorgeous original or custom wheels .. so why not take a proper look in the engine bay and inspect the fuel lines. A good
way to check these is by taking the fuel hose in both hands with your thumbs pointing at each other and bending the hose (gently). Make sure
you have enough light and see if you can spot any cracks or even signs of old wearing rubber.. If you do – replace immediately! Depending on
the use of your vehicle we would recommend replacing your fuel lines every 2 year and if your car hardly gets any miles we would recommend
inspecting and or replacing them sooner.

0970 Fuel hose Ø5.5mm
0971 Fuel hose Ø6mm
0972 Fuel hose Ø3.5mm
0972-100 Fuel hose Ø3.2mm
0973 Fuelhose Ø7.5mm

And whilst you’re at it, why not replace the fuel filter at the same time. Don’t wait and think that you only need to replace it when you see sediment
in the filter. Some of it will be in between the filter itself. We recommend replacing this all together with the fuel hose.

Lastly, in case you need new clamps to secure your hose we supply them in various sizes from 8mm to 17mm.
(change the 2 digits behind the dash for the correct size)

Stay away from the Corona virus, stay healthy, and keep on buggin’…. BBT’s News team wishes you a relax and virus free weekend….

BBT and Auto Linea teamed up to improve our aluminum engine cases.

After a customer feedback and some “in-house” investigation we found out the clearance between rod bolts and cilinder sleeve in the engine case was kind a small.

Auto linea took our suggestion serious and updated the CNC machine software to enlarge the bespoke clearance… after test runs they send us this report. Thought this was cool to share with all of You….

BBT continuously works on a better product, therefore we evaluate your feedback a lot, and take it serious too!
