This week a little about product developing….
seems like we choose right manufacturer for our oil slinger reproduction…. oil slinger prevent, when oil seal leaks on early cars, oil spills your brake shoes (what would be not a smart idea!)
the tooling is in final stage…
Below is the fixture only, to have the right welding of the little tube…. we will be able to have oil slingers for beetle, bus, type 3 and Porsche 356, off course only the early cars use, but they’re bend, missing, broken, good ones are so hard to get, BBT is on its way to solve this problem….
do you reconise the part yet?….:)
maybe its better to show You the pictures of the samples left last Wednesday the factory to us for final testing… we’re looking forward…..
Yesterday I drove with Bert (my moms friend) to Germany for the delivery of two very important cars….
our mini convoy….:)
first stop oàn the German Autobahn, we need a pee and a coffee! Bert, 75 years old, loves to drive old VW buses, the ex Jason Kendall 21 window in desirable Lotus white was proved and well found by Bert…. First delivery was the meticulous Rometsch Beeskow @ the Grundmann museum in Hessisch Oldendorf… first leg of our tour was fullfilled! From HO we continued to Hanover where we had to go to the outer skirts where all special bus works been provided for the Volkswagenwerk… it seems that the old-timer abteilung from VW Nutzfahrzeuge got its own proper spot now, not in the factory anymore like a couple of years ago
and not only the oldies are in this area….:)
back home, after 45 years of traveling the United states this baby is back in the factory where its been made… yes we @ BBT sell cars to Volkswagen werk…. if we’re good enough for Volkswagen factory are we good enough for You?
I was allowed to take pictures inside, but unfortunately only for private use, so sorry I can not publish on the blog….:(
quiet exhausting day, I slept well last night, and dreamed about….. Vw buses….:)
