Allan died last Sunday from complications three days after triple bypass surgery. He was 70.
He was a great designer, very good mechanic and good driver. He was an underrated Kiwi.
I posted this on the Race Team Mechanics thread but it may not have been noticed there so raising separately

He worked with the best. See post 80 photo of him working with the great Jim Clark.
