(en) Frank Costin né le 8 juin 1920 et décédé le 5 février 1995 est un ingénieur aérodynamicien ayant essentiellement œuvré dans la construction automobile. Il a notamment amélioré la conception des châssis monocoques et adapté des techniques issues de l'aéronautique à l'aérodynamique automobile. (fr) Francis Albert "Frank" Costin (8 giugno 1920 – 5 febbraio 1995) è stato un ingegnere, progettista e imprenditore britannico, cofondatore della Marcos insieme a . (it) Frank Costin (* 8. Juni 1920; † 5. Februar 1995) war ein Ingenieur und Pionier der Monocoque-Bauweise. Frank Costin war der Bruder von Mike Costin, einem Mitgründer des Motorenherstellers Cosworth. Während des Zweiten Weltkrieges arbeitete er bei de Havilland an Flugzeugen. Seine Kenntnisse in Aerodynamik und Flugzeugbau wandte er später erfolgreich im Bau von Renn- und Sportwagen an, so gestaltete er zum Beispiel die Form des Lotus Elite mit. 1959 gründete er zusammen mit den Hersteller Marcos Cars und entwarf den „Xylon“ mit einem Fahrgestell aus Sperrholz. Wegen der Sperrholzkonstruktion geriet das Fahrzeug besonders leicht. Das Fahrgestell verkleidete er mit einer aerodynamisch effizienten Karosserie, was im Automobilsport der Nachkriegszeit einen großen Vorteil darstellte. (de)
