Wrong on both counts I'm afraid.

This is indeed Mr. Jameson, but this is not The Beast. Held for you until your next response for the correct identification of the vehicle!

The Merlin ?

Not the Merlin, opened up to everyone again!

Nope, Merlin doesn't feature anywhere in the name.

Meteor

wingroad · April 14, 2015, 04:35:28 PM

Is it Modulo ?

Neither of those names I'm afraid.

DHoffmann · April 16, 2015, 04:59:54 AM

Easy point for the pros?

That's Paul Jameson sitting in the chassis of his Rolls-Royce Merlin powered six-wheeler, the Jameson Concorde: http://www.autopuzzles.com/forum/index.php?topic=12321

This might be what it became, but not the name it went by in the state shown in the above photo.

Jameson Mk II

Wendax · April 16, 2015, 06:00:26 AM

You are, once again, very much correct!

Afraid not, see above!

DHoffmann · April 16, 2015, 06:26:12 AM

The other images accompanying my post. Sadly pictures went over 2 pages and the rind was very stiff making for difficult scanning, sorry!

Apparently a fairly sleek body was planned, but it ended up looking like on the second picture...
