Notes: Arfons apparently debuted the new "Cyclops" on the backstretch of the Daytona International Speedway, Daytona Beach, Fla., as previewed in the 1/06/62 Daytona Beach Herald-Journal. Arfons said Cyclops was the 17th in the line of Green Monsters. Cyclops was intended primarily as a Bonneville land speed record car and not a dragster. It was featured in the June 1962 Motor Trend. - RT
