Chris Gibbs, banned from this site due to having a sense of humour
Google for haynes roadster forum and you'll find the official Roadster forum, that's where you'll find him.

If you read the foreword in his book he pays thanks to Martin Keenan for his help in making the prototype and his design input on the suspension. So I
would say its a 50:50 with Chris and MK.

Hi All, Just to clarify things, i designed the chassis, suspension and bodywork for the haynes roadster, i also built the demo car as featured in the
book.
Chris gibbs documented everything and wrote the book.
regards martin m.k. engineering
p.s. some of the cad drawings in the book were done by another forum member
