What we do is list the years the cars were active in Formula 1, not so much the production years. Thanks for your input, but I'm pretty sure the info is on the up and up:

Lotus 16 - belongs in 1958 or 59
The Lotus 16 raced in Formula 1 from 1958 up until 1960
Ferrari 156 1961 - is actually Ferrari 156A 1963
Both of them are pictured.
Ferrari 1512 1964 - is actually - Ferrari 158Aero year is correct
Take a close look at the picture and count the exhaust pipes
Mclaren 73 M23 - belongs in 1974
Again years of activity are 1973 - 1975
Tyrrell 009 1979 - is actually - Tyrrell 010 1980
Both cars look similar, but the 1980 livery is quite different. It's most certainly a 009.
Ram March 01 1983 - is actually - March 831 1983
My book lists no 831, but refers to the 1983 car as a Ram March for reasons explained in the write up.

If you should see a man walking down a crowded street talking aloud to himself, don't run in the opposite direction, but run towards him, because he's a poet. You have nothing to fear from the poet - but the truth.
