Last week we delivered two buses to our favorite transporter for the big haul to the south of France…
Lucky buses can retire in a mild climate from now on….:)
What a wonderful world we’re living in, do we realize that enough?
It’s crazy, cars are driving, food is growing, the sun comes up, and if we don’t see it, we just jump on a plane and fly to a destination where there’s always sun. Everybody stops at stop signs or traffic lights, we all have a house, and if you work hard enough you even have time to travel with the family and/or have crazy hobbies like collecting cars.
Do we really realize what we have?
If we jump out of bed and switch on the light in the morning, do we realize how many people and what kind of organisation is behind the electricity 24hrs a day to make that work? Or do we think it’s just “normal”…
Maybe we have to realize more that the small “normal” things in life, aren’t that normal at all. Maybe we just are too much used to it and are too spoiled to realize how special they are… and collecting cars is special too. Who could have imagined the classic car world today a mere 50 years ago? Working in our hobbies, that’s more as fun to do… that just tells us how lucky we are!
Something to realize every morning, before we switch on that light….
This week we have a couple of small things that came in and got part numbers, real necessary parts to finish that car.
Finally we decided to run also the Speedometer cable for split window bugs.
This cable is quite a lot longer as the later models, because with a split the speedometer is central in the dashboard.
Readily available from our shelves now!
2699-000 Speedometer cable – Beetle -09/52 TQ
Besides the door wedges themselves BBT 0438-31 and the correct screws for the door wedges BBT 0438-315 we also have the sleeves for the door wedges available for the real early cars.
Many times these sleeves are missing, which results in poor mounting, lack of tightening or just runs the screws through the door wedges.
We sell these sleeves per pair
0438-316 Sleeve door center wedge – Beetle -01/53 – Bus -12/63 (pair)
We used to use this product to complete our VW logo’s back in the day, till Volkswagen halted that.
Now out of popular demand we bring these clips in our program by their own.
The correct clip to mount the big VW logo on the front of your splitty bus!
We sell them each, you need 4 to attach the logo completely.
0440-105 Spring clip emblem – Bus -07/67
Airmighty n° 34 is out and ready available in our shop or add one to your order!
We got our crazy popular washer jets back in stock! Aren’t they cool?
Well many customers think they are, as we sell them as hell!
Get yours now!
BBT News team wishes you all a very wonderful weekend and hopefully we all dwell on a couple of small things, that make our world so special, and enjoyable to live in.
