A small tsunami of arrivals this week.
Many long time backorders, more new products and a lot of inventory.
It was hands on this week in our Goods In dept.
Danny and his team worked through it and we have a lot of goods ready for delivery.
Exciting, like everything in BBT is exciting for the last 35 years.
That’s right last week we celebrated our 35th anniversary.
February 06, 1988, Bob opened up his first little shop in the shed in his parents garden.
Every day since we feel the excitement, excitement we’re been able to deliver the parts you need for your beloved Volkswagen.
Our dedication is larger than ever, and we’re here to stay, hence more arrivals, more new products and more inventory, to serve you better.
Welcome to our weekly BBT NEWS.
After close to 4 years development we present our inner front panel for late bay window.
Freshly from brand new cast tooling in our well-known Silver Weld Through brand.
We started from an absolute brand-new NOS example to cast our tooling.
To help you orientating, this is the panel holding the window washer tank behind the kick panels in the cabin of your 72-79 bay window bus.
This is an absolute exclusive BBT/Silver Weld Through production from our own private tooling.

The BBT News team wishes you a splendid weekend!
Our thoughts go this week in first place to East Turkey and North-West Syria.
Such big earth quakes that take your house away, and large part of your family with that you can’t imagine until it happens !
Seeing the results of a disaster this size brings you back to the basics of human nature.
Too many people forget how happy they are (or should be) with what they have, especially in our Western world.
These values are exactly what we’re fighting for in Ukraine, another place where you don’t want to live right now.
Earlier this week a little neighbor girl came to BBT with her dad, she asked if she could see our VW buses.
She walked around and you could almost hear her fantasy making plans for a trip, maybe even a life in a bus.
How beautiful it is you can turn a smile on a child’s face by only showing your Volkswagen, or driving by.
Did you think about that lately?
BBT spread out further and further over the world, but we will always keep our basics, trying to make with the VW parts world a better one.
Welcome to the BBT news!

In the early seventies Volkswagen made a special type of sealing nut to mount the oil pump cover on their engines.
This nut HERE sealed the M8 stud perfectly.
Because of this perfection we decided to stock the same type of sealed nut for the earlier engines with M6 studs.
Never existed original, but so much better.
So let us present you our M6 sealed nuts to hold your oil pump cover drip free!
Sold each, you will need 4 pcs for one engine.
