Jan. 10 The Monster with clipped wings: Paul Jameson's MK2 Monster, which cost him an estimated £2, 500 to build, has just become the World's fastest private road car. This 18ft. 7in'. long, six wheeled Monster, with a fibre-glass body has no less than three gear boxes, keeping in line the 12-cylinder, 27, 000cc, Rolls royce Merlin engine; which came form B.C.A.C. Argonaut Aurliner. With a 1, 760 h.p engine and a top speed of 185 m.p.h, it takes a special gearing to keep the top speed below 200 m.p.h. for should the car reach over the top speed it would leave the ground. Taking 60 gallons of 5-star patrol to top it up Jameson's petrol bills are no envy of even the most elite car owners; paying anything up to £46-80, each time toill. Although the car is classified to go on the road it is virtually impossible for Paul to do o because of the narrow roads. it is in a way a Modern Frankenstein of Engineering and could soon be place in History by being put int the Guiness Book of Records, as the Fastest Private Road Car in the World
