Specifications Cooper Climax T45 F1 OW 1958 blueprint
The Cooper Climax T45 F1 OW 1958, known for its impressive performance, was a Formula One racing car produced by the iconic British engineering firm, Cooper Car Company. It was the first of its kind to be powered by the Climax straight-4 engine, a development of the FPF model designed by Aubrey Woods and Harry Mundy. The engine was mated to a four-speed Colotti Type 30 gearbox and produced around 260 hp. The chassis was an elegant and lightweight aluminium space-frame design, designed and built in the company's Surbiton workshop. The T45's handling was its greatest strength, thanks to the split rear axle design which allowed the suspension to remain relatively soft and compliant. This enabled the car to take corners with greater speed and less effort than its contemporaries. The brakes were also improved, no longer needing to be bled, and the overall weight was reduced, making it more competitive. The car had a sleek, aerodynamic profile, with pontoon fenders and a long, tapered tail giving it a distinctive look. The tropical blue livery it was most commonly seen in completed the classic aesthetic. The car was successful in 1958, with its best result being a podium finish for Maurice Trintignant at the German Grand Prix. It also went on to be used by other racing teams, and won multiple races in the hands of drivers such as Jack Brabham and Stirling Moss. The Cooper Climax T45 F1 OW 1958 has remained a popular favourite amongst racing fans and enthusiasts alike, giving it a unique place in the annals of motorsport history. It was the first of its kind and, depending on the driver, has a legacy few machines can match.
