What are the white foam looking things around the top? That paint looks to almost not need color sanding. |

it is a kombi, but without a full compliment of seats this is going to be a nerd bus. For the average bus enthusiast, this is going to be a walk through kombi with great paint. I say 55 is high, but i do love the bus _________________ regards
