Introduced for the 1929 season, the TT Replica Scott was available in either 498cc or 596cc capacities and to quote the Scott sales catalogue was "Designed essentially for the speedman, the TT Replica is the outcome of years of racing experience. The engine has a longer stroke and for power is in advance of any previous Scott engine." The longer stroke being 71.4mm for the TT Replica in comparison to the more prevalent Scott stroke dimension of 68.25mm. The catalogue went onto describe the TT as "a replica of the machine finishing third in the 1928 Senior TT race". Despite a price tag of £88 for the 498cc version and £91 for the larger model the TT Replica proved popular and continues to be held in high esteem by Scott enthusiasts today.
The example offered has been housed in a museum for the last twenty years prior to which it had seen considerable use following an "extensive and detailed rebuild", the vendor noting that the handmade radiator contains over 1000 tubes.
