You're right, Tamiya's FW07 is the 1979/1980 early races car.

Considering that most of the Revival kits are Metal AND Plastic, I would add to the list:

1956 # Juan Manuel Fangio (ARG) Ferrari D50
1957 # Juan Manuel Fangio (ARG) Maserati 250F
1958 # Mike Hawthorn (GBR) Ferrari 246
1961 # Phil Hill (USA) Ferrari 156 "Sharknose"
1964 # John Surtees (GBR) Ferrari 158

Revival announced a 1955 Mercedes W196, but I don't know if that kit was ever made or sold.

I don't know a Mercedes W196 in 1/20, think only in 1/43 :)

Nobody seems to like Jack Brabham.
Neither his Cooper's nor his Repco Brabham are available...

Racecraft Models did several resine 1/20 Cooper T51 kits. Among them Jack Brabham's 1959 championship car (https://www.scalemodellingnow.com/hnveh ... -prix-1959).
The other versions were Bruce McLaren 1959 British GP and the British Racing Partnership T51of Chris Bristow 1960 Monaco GP.

Thats right. It was featured on the box art, but never released.

Its remarkable that this car was never made in 1/20th scale.
But then, there are so many cars missing, as our lists show...

I can confirm that the Race-Craft Cooper T51 is still available from various sources, including ebay, as I recently bought one. It's a nice kit but is curbside only unless you fancy doing some cutting... :lol:
