What a week it was. 
 First Bob was in Taiwan.

Spamming us daily with the running SWT projects.
We also received several containers. 

Containing long awaited backorders, 
but also a crazy list of new products.

We will present all of them in the coming weeks, 
starting today. 

Welcome to BBT NEWS.
Let's talk about the air flap for your bay window fresh air system in the front panel.
We bring you the rubbers to ensure a good seal of these air valves and the control rod.

The rubber around the flap often becomes hard, crumbles, or simply disappears.
This allows cold driving wind and rain water to enter when closed.

This surrounding rubber is glued to the valve and sold individually.
Two are needed per car.

Next is the harmonica rubber that sits over the operating rod. 
The rod goes from the lever on the dashboard to the flap.

This "harmonica rubber" allows enough room to operate the rod while still sealing properly.
Sold individually.

Up to 07/76 you need two per car, from 08/76-07/79 only one.

04/50 through 09/52 split window Beetles doors have loose metal window channels.
These channels guide your door window as it rolls up and down. 

The front is a large, curved channel that also serves to close the window at the top.
The straight one sits on the back of your door.

Both have a felt-covered rubber U-channel inside.
The whole combination ensures smooth operation.

Securing a good closing.
Keeps the elements out of your car. 

Unfortunately, the steel frames are corrosive sensitive, 
felt and rubber have aged too much over time. 

Simply bad and too often beyond repair. 
So many people have suffered in search of new ones. 

Not anymore.
BBT offers you a complete brand new set of window channel.

Steel frames, rubber and felt. 
All you need for one car, two doors.

So now you can restore these split window Beetle window channels to their original state.

We had the largest delivery of SWT panels ever.
This filled a lot of back orders. 

Other containers also came in.
Our website looked almost like a Christmas tree with all the green lights back on. 

We're in the process of increasing our inventory (again).
World tensions and wars only increase our delivery times.

This makes us stock more.
To continue to provide the service you deserve. 

Let us give you some highlights that came in again.
The BBT News Team wishes you a happy weekend. 
Stay tuned for many more new products and multi arrivals.

Raindrops are falling on our heads.
All leaves on the trees turn in the most beautiful colors.

Fall has started in Western Europe.
Did you check out your favorite (VW) winter project? 

Let us help with the parts needed.
Every week more and better parts for your VW.

For more easy projects
First enjoy fall colors and take a walk.

It is just so magical and beautiful. 
Exactly like our parts for your Volkswagen.

Welcome to BBT News.
To secure life for water-cooled VW models, we decided to move (slowly) into this market.
Starting with T4 Eurovan Transporter parts.
All our water-cooled part numbers will start with W.
W from Water-cooled that is.
As we had to start somewhere here is number one! 

Outer bushing for rear trailing arm your T4 Eurovan. 
Inner bushing HERE is same as T25/T3/Vanagon.

The difference between inner and outer bushing is in the diameter from the bolt hole.
Early Type 3 cars had specific door handles.
These door handles need specific seals.

We proudly bring you a set of brand-new door handle seals for your early Type 3 car.
One kit contains two big and two small seals, enough for both doorhandles.

Same time we bring you the door lock seal.
On early Type 3's the door lock is not in but sits below the door handle.

Door lock seals for your early Type 3 will come per pair for one car.
Left and right being the same.

These door handle seals fits perfect to Notchback, Squareback and Fastback, German build up to 1967 model year.
These door handle seals will not fit Brazilian made Type 3 models.

The complete BBT family of doorhandle seals for all your air-cooled Volkswagens HERE
You better protect the brake light switch(es) on your bake master cylinders.
Brake lights are important and save your car being rear ended.

We bring you the early brake light switch boot.
Generally introduced from the 1966 model year.

Used originally on Beetle and Ghia up to 1971 and bus up to 10/69.
We recommend using this rubber on all single brake circuit brake light switches.

This rubber protects also the immobilizer and oil temperature switches on Beetle & Ghia Auto-Stick transmission.
Later model boots HERE
Back and improved!
Finally we sell back flower vases.

Typical 50's accessory.
Put a flower in your car, put a flower in your hair.

Will also fit your toothbrush.
Plain white color ceramics, no flower prints anymore, sorry.

Comes with its proper holder.
Do You have the flower vase but missing the holder? 
Out of a huge NOS parts lot we picked these NOS flower vase holders.
Some serious arrivals this week and some back orders deserves mentioning!
We raised our inventory for these products and hope production can follow from now on.
Enjoy fall colors, you really should.
Enjoy your Volkswagens too,
BBT News team wishes you an adorable weekend.
