The Karmann Cabriolet was built from 1949-80. To compensate for the strength lost in removing the roof, the sills were reinforced, a transverse beam was fitted below the front edge of the rear seat cushion, and the side cowl-panels below the instrument panel were double-wall. The top was cabriolet-style with a full inner headliner hiding the folding mechanism and crossbars. The convertible was generally more lavishly equipped than the sedan
