This special, which comprised a c.1935 MOV frame and an incomplete KTT engine, together with a Mark 2 gearbox, was acquired by the vendor approximately five years ago in dismantled condition. He had the inspiration of building a larger capacity version of the popular and successful KTT racer to use in hillclimbs and sprints. After finding some of the missing components, the machine was assembled with new replica crankcases, hubs and brakeplates. The engine is a larger bore and stroke than a standard KTT, giving a capacity of approximately 480cc. Completed some three years ago, it has not yet been started, and will therefore need some commissioning work (the magneto, in particular, no longer sparks), and safety checks prior to any future use. Prospective buyers should satisfy themselves as to the suitability and compatibility of its component parts. There is no documentation with this lot.
