That's an SSV bar, a lot bigger than a Scorcher bar. The SSV bar is pretty much a copy of a VN Group A bar. Nice looking EA! It actually reminds me of the old EA2BA car but this one's a lot tidier (no offence to Jason)

I think it may have been parted out in the end. Sad end to it really

that's a sad way to end that car. just got a J3 chip for the car so that will be going in soon and I'll be getting it tuned as well.
I just realized i haven't put any pics of the motor so here's a pic of how it is at the moment.

One of the most unique boxcars i've seen and I mean that in a good way. How much did the BA lights set you back? I'm looking to do the same to mine. Welcome to Boosted :drinks2:
