PVT stands for Post Vintage Thoroughbred - a term introduced by the VSCC to permit a select few makes and models into the 'Vintage' fold. Post 1930 Austins didn't qualify, except for the sporting models like the Nippy.

The Ruby's time will come, I'm sure, but the VSCC never does anything in a rush!
