I like that headache rack. Anyone seen one like that or have info? I assume it was not a factory or dealer option…I thought about making one a while back and would love to see what has been done.
That looks like an old pub I frequented in Bavaria in the day.

Looks to me like a reflection or a watermark. There is another watermake across the belt line at the rear of the bus.

If it wasn't the cause, it is part of the aftermath.
