Default New guy from Colorado

Hello,
New guy with a familiar story. I rode dirt bikes growing up. I Started ride bigger bikes when i was 16 ( kz-1000, V-max and others) I always wanted a Harley but I couldn't swing it. long story short and Three Kids later... I got an incredible deal on a Fatboy. It was at an insurance auction locally. Theft recovery, vandalism victim that had It's Vin altered. They issued me a title in my name with its new Vin as a 2004 Harley Davidson. I'm fine with that because it's a " fixer upper " I plan to wrench on with my eight year old son. I believe it to be a 1994ish to 1999ish Fatboy. I would appreciate it if some of you that are much more knowledgeable about these machines, please tell what I have here because she needs some parts. This is how she sits today. Thanks for the help and I'm very excited to be a part of this community.
