Meet the Grand daughter of Didier…
She loves the bus of grand daddy!
We found the bus from Didier back as earlier reported to this Blog….
and does his grand-daughter like it? …. you bet!
Checking some of my pictures from my last road trip in december I came by these pictures I thought was fun to share with all of you!
Magic scenery!
and a nice rainbow too! Not very often You can capture rainbows on camera!
This van is sitting on its pole along the 101 just before San Francisco, used to be in Lyft colors, but now they put it in San Francisco wrapping, pretty cool!
Busted 101 all on their way to the Bay bridge… at least the San Francisco skyline is a cool thing to look at…:)
Very American billboard for a burger place, but the place was closed down for a while! Still we do love americana don’t we?
It was a real cool road trip, despite the cold and wet weather….
I’m already fit for the next trip!
It’s not really news to tell you happy New Year, but it’s something we simply must do because we really want to.
Not for etiquette, general form or being polite, but simply because we really wish you a lot of happiness in the year which just started.
May 2020 be the best year ever for you, your family, friends, colleagues and relationships.
The world has never been better till now, never ever was the global rate of poorness or people killed by hunger any lower than today. These numbers recently published don’t mean we’re good and the best, but it means we’re acting in the right direction. We have to keep on growing, keep on telling what’s good and what’s bad and vote politicians that really prefer peace instead of war! People love conflicts but prefer peace for sure, for all families, also in 2020 the best year ever! Happy New Year…
To start the year we like to present a bunch of new products in our range to open 2020 with a Big Bang.
With the almost unlimited imports of thousands of late super beetles convertibles out of the USA into Europe last 20 years or so, we try to follow the US spec parts line as well. New in that parts line are the rear fenders with the square hole for the telescopic bumper bracket. We offer left and right. These fenders are made in Italy.
The telescopic bumper brackets for the US spec cars can be found HERE.
0125-200 Wing rear left – Beetle 08/74- USA
0126-200 Wing rear right – Beetle 08/74- USA
For the early Bay window we have the inner front lower panel. Simply said this is the panel that sits between your lower front panel and the BBT 0891-180 inner plate welded on the chassis legs.
Many times just rusted away together with the lower front panel, it’s cool you can replace it at once with these pretty high quality replacement part. This panel ensures you a quality correct repair or restoration.
0891-182 Inner panel front valance – Bus 08/67-07/72
Out of popular demand we also enlarged our gasket range for steering boxes.
These are the paper gaskets between cover and housing of your steering box.
Made in EU for perfect fit and quality.
1368-070 Gasket steering box – Beetle/KG -62
1368-075 Gasket steering box – Beetle/KG 62-, Type3 Type181
1368-215 Gasket steering box – Bus 03/55 -07/67
Original made for Split window steering box, these will also fit early Bay Window although Early Bay window steering boxes came from the factory sealed with liquid gasket only and never with a paper gasket.
And if the paper gasket is not enough we also dug out all oil seals for the steering boxes… we already used to carry several models and we’re happy to expand our line with following models.
1368-055 Steering box seal (lower) – Beetle/KG -62
1368-060 Steering box seal (upper) – Beetle/KG 62-, Type3, Type181
1368-065 Steering box seal (lower) – Beetle/KG 62-, Type3, Type181
The oil seal on top for the pre 1962 Beetle and Ghia Steering boxes, we already carried them under BBT 1368-050
All steering box parts can be found HERE
Next we have a real cool tail gate lock for Split window bus built between August 1963 and July 1966 with the round button.
We can’t tell how many worn out and screwdriver disabused items we saw in our lives, so we’re very happy we could trace this one down and offer it here for you
Comes with two correct T profile keys.
0429-450 Tail gate lock w/keys – Bus 08/63-07/66 TQ
Our heater knobs are back in stock… world-famous for their quality, though now we made them even better ….
Don’t compare them with inferior products, as ours fit right on and don’t come loose anymore…
