This particular FatBoy is based on one the last Euro-spec 74 1303 Volkswagen Convertibles. Thoroughly disassembled from top to bottom, the body shell was reinforced with racing strut braces. A parade of Porsche parts come next. The strongest visual clue that this ride is special is its chopped convertible top. Painfully sliced and diced, the top began as a standard Karmann built folding frame. The main bows were cut 5 inches, leaving precious little headroom when the top is up. Careful measurements saw the need to lengthen the pieces above each door. The side and quarter windows needed replacing with custom built units that fit quite nicely. German cloth in black goes very well with the body and phat Porsche rims. FatBoy, a true German Juggernaught. Built for high-speed motoring, it is sure to bring satisfying smiles to those who get a chance to drive him.
