Does anyone know who made the body on the aluminium prototype?

My guess - Paul Emery himself...

I found a short piece in a book which says that Paul Emery designed and physically built his cars. Of the GT it says:

The prototype had an aluminium body, and because it was constructed on an uneven floor, one door sill was deeper than the other, so the doors were of different sizes. Emery's response was typical... "So what? You can't see both sides at once."

Thanks. But I believe it could have said that he built the car regardless of whether he made the body or not, and the of the quotes does not specifically says that he built it. Paul Emery got bodies from KP Engineered/Maurice Gomm on other cars he built according to information I've found and I was wondering he perhaps used Gomms services for this car too.
