I went down to pick up some EPS surfboard blank foam today.
I saw something interesting in the shop.
I was lucky to get there just before they rolled it out.
I was told, it was for Honda and they do a lot of them. I saw 2 more dollys with out foam in the back.
All I had was my surfboard Gopro with the fish eye.

Foam blank for a concept car is what it looks like.

There are a lot of automotive design studios in LA, and it looks like you stumbled across one of their suppliers. Maybe the surfer-crowd designers they have to address the American youth market are more comfortable shaping foam than clay.

I was told it was for Honda. Honda is just down the road
My guess is they could NC cut it, spray it with a high build epoxy primer and they have a fast mock-up.

Here is the first. Bottom glassed, going to go flip it and glass the deck in a bit.
That block of foam in the back of my truck will make 3 more.
