Also in the New Year already, Jonas and Kukie spotted several cars, “space cakes” and parts lots worth to mention on the blog, the Photo credit goes this time to both of them, and the have really eagle eyes!

The big Cadillac we had to transport from the seaport and store for a Polish customer.

A very cool 911T we arranged transport from Rotterdam to Seaport to Bordeaux France…

“Space Cake”? no! just regular Birthday cake, Seffi, the girlfirend of my Godson Dennis, made for me! Cool huh…. VW cooking, a new way of life!

Nineteensomething Dodge pick up, leaves BBT premises to his nesw home in Poland…

Goods out dept, with three cars ready for transport….. and offcourse parts, parts, parts…:)

Nice picture, almost art! a transporter came to pick up a Beetle, direction Sofia Bulgaria…. nice detail, the driver claimed he drove in every single country of entire Europe! wowh, that is a lot! The K70 on the front was a very nice cool original car, altough not very collectable…

Glass, glass, glass… BBT went trough a lot of Glass last week!

extreme niceT2a arrived lst Friday straight from Sunny California, more pictures to follow soon!

and last but not least, these three beauty’s left for France…

With a New Year we also started with new cars. After finishing the 21 window samba (except for the tranny that’s gone to rebuild) Koen started another major project. The  Westfalia SO34 Flip seat top resto…

Back from the paint shop and untouched since it needs complete re-assembling… it looks like a space ship still from the front…:)

and even interior is all out, paint job was in and out!

on the other side of the workshop we started detailling the magic original mint condition 1955 stratos silver ragtop, we had to take of one fender to take out some old parking dents, not an easy task on an all original car!

Meanwhile we decided to keep the period covers on the seats, as we like too much, too much fifty’s, we can’t get enough of this! But we will probably never know how the nice interior looks under it! well maybe the next owner/caretaker will decide to remove…

after this stratos a complete nice original 53 oval in glossy black  first paint lines up for detail… Yes, we’re your source for real early collectables!

The Bleu and white 65 samba was finished, but @ testing seems the tranny gavesome troubles, so back in the shop and tranny out and away for rebuild…

and finally also Nicolas and his friends thought it was about time to wash and detail their scale bus… the real world…. in scale…

So another week of hard work in our warehouse and office… “Goods in” was very busy this week with the arrival of our new container with glass. Working close together with our glass manufacturer results we can deliver most windshields, side and rear window glass for most of your beloved VW’s from our stocks now. A complete list will come with next edition of the newsletter, or can be asked at your BBT salesperson. Top quality made in Europe, because Glass is about your safety!

It’s a lot of glass! All windows had to be packed separately. BBT’s service takes the next step here as our glass is packed at unparalleled quality ensuring safe storage and easy transportation. And even with all of this we still offer @ very moderate pricing!

 all in BBT shelves ready for immediate shipping and/or delivery! BBT your number one aircooled VW glass source.
