I have been asked to help transport the MK1 KVA to the auction. I have never seen a KVA built to this high standard or with careful choice of parts. It is very impressive. Also intrigued to see how it goes as it is miles above your average KVA standard.

Hi Malcolm,

I am a volunteer at Brooklands Museum so expect to look over the entry lots. What day do you anticipate delivering the KVA?

Dropped the KVA GT40 off this morning at Brooklands. Lots of nice stuff there!

GT40s.bot picked up this sale thread so hopefully I am allowed to just repeat it here?
