The Cooper T43 was a Formula One and Formula Two racing car designed and built by the Cooper Car Company for the 1957 Formula One season, first appearing at the 1957 Monaco Grand Prix in a factory entered car for Jack Brabham. The T43 earned a significant place in motor racing history when Stirling Moss drove a Rob Walker Racing Team T43 to win the 1958 Argentine Grand Prix, the first World Drivers Championship race win for a rear-engined car. Despite this achievement the car was superseded almost immediately by the T45. The last appearance of the T43 in the World Championship was at the 1960 Italian Grand Prix.
