May we expect a solution for the cramped ocean shipping of late?
Might be, traders booked real early freight for the Christmas season, what kept shippers busy during summer months instead of early fall.

Also some signals of fading global demand pop up…
Let’s hope we get soon back to normal shipping schedules and shipping prices, what would be better for everybody.

Meanwhile we don’t change anything, and keep on adding new parts to our inventory every week for you.
It’s Friday, welcome to BBT News.

Let’s start with rather something not all of us need, but when you’re the one who should need it you might take a deep breath as we make those now available.
That said…

Let us introduce the piston and liner kit for the late Mexican fuel injection 1600cc ACD engines.
These piston and liners are very specific and fit only the ACD engines.

With many of these final production Mexican beetles sold through German grocery stores at the end of the production they floated all over Europe.
We traced these piston and liner kits down in Mexico ourselves and are happy we can offer them from our shelves.

1699-100 Die cast piston kit 85,5 mm – 1600i ACD

These little plates are a real necessity to mount the fuel tank in every split window pick up.
Mounted on the floor they keep the belts around your fuel tank.

Sold by the pair.

We carry our chrome emergency brakes already for a longer time under BBT # 0521.
We enlarged the line now with the same emergency brake but in black color to keep the original look.

Originally made for Beetles up to 1964 with this kind of hook up for the emergency brake cables, they will fit every year Beetle, Ghia, 181 or Type 3 1955 and up. We should mention the length of emergency brake cables can be slightly different for 1965 and later models.

Most easy is to install the emergency brake, measure with your old cable what’s short or too long and check measures HERE which BBT reference to order

We now bring you the economic version of our ever popular Bosch W7DTC spark plug.
The main difference is that BBT 2014-W7DTC has three electrodes while our new BBT 2014-W7DC has only one.

This results in price making BBT 2014-W7DC a little more economic than BBT 2014-W7DTC.
BBT 2014-W7DC and BBT 2014-W7DTC will fit both your DF/DG T25/T3/Vanagon wasserboxer engines.

Now we leave the choice up to you…

Lesley is a very loyal BBT customer from south of Belgium, and lives very close to the flooded areas.

Thanks God he, his family and his bus was saved from the water and the bus makes good progress with all BBT Silver Weld Through panels.

Lesley does everything by his own and this is really his first “bus resurrection” as he tends to call it.

Thanks to Lesley’s constructive feedback we could address several little flaws to the factory in order to move up the quality even more of our SWT product range.
