It is well known that Biante is concentrating on the Australian built motorcars Like the Holden, Ford and the Valiant.
I am humbly trying to add one more to this list for whenever Biante will be scratyching their collective corporate craniums of which one to do next:confused:
The BRABHAM REPCO Australian built cars:D
Hopefully this will be taken in consideration.

Bert, no Brabham Repco's were built in Australia. They were all built by Ron in the UK. You know that!!
Some Repco engines were installed in cars and if John Harvey can help us, we will do the LJ Sports sedan with the Repco engine. Anyone who ever saw this car at a race meeting would agree it had to be the meanest thing they had ever seen up to that time!!
If you are angling for a F1 car, we have already made one in 43rd...as to whether a 1:18th will be forthcoming..who knows.
I for one certainly hope so.

Trevor ,I will drop off a Video copy of the Brabham Repco story as I still have some left.
Which is the one that is made in 1/43 you mention?
I do hope that more of the older F1 models are to be made
It is certainly going the right way with the output of Minichamps in the last couple of years.
I for one would love to see and have some or all Brabham models on display in my collection
Each and every one is of outstanding quality so far!
The models made by yourself are equally sensational,
regards
Bert
