Chassis:
The fourth and final FW07 built, this example was pressed into service halfway through the 1979 season. Alan Jones immediately drove it to back-to-back victories in the German and Austrian Grands Prix. Later in the year, the Australian also won the Canadian Grand Prix in chassis 04. At the start of 1980, it was brought out again for the two South American rounds. By winning the Argentinean Grand Prix, Jones another win to the car's tally. Having spent many years in Australia, it was more recently acquired by a Saudi Arabian enthusiast. He had Fifteen Eleven Design restore the car in time for the inaugural Saudi Arabian Grand Prix at the end of 2021. Here, it was reunited with Alan Jones and demonstrated alongside FW07/01 by the likes if Emerson Fittipaldi and Damon Hill.
