You're welcome fellas. I hope it dispels a few myths and confirms a few others. I'm happy to attach the relevant pdf, which will need a mass of dissection and investigation to really appreciate, but the file manager won't allow me to upload it. Any other options?
Off the bat, I find it really interesting that the original concept application, designed by both Merv and his son Gary, was lodged to the patents office in July, 1957 but not finalised until July, 1958. In addition, the publication and approval of the design wasn't completed until June 1960, around the release of the next generation chassis.
As speculated, it appears Merv never gave up on the concept - stubborn bugger!
