Im not sure, but pretty sure that most of the early F1 type cars such as a supersquallo had bodies produced by Scaglietti. More to do with their close proximity to the factory I would guess. Then again it may be hard to pin on one coachbuilder since these bodies were each unique and very few done. I know I have read about early F1 complete chassis being wheeled over to Scaglietti to have the bodies done.

Ghia
Vignale
Farina
Pininfarina
Fantuzzi
Cigario
Scaglietti
for his sports cars.
Am not sure about GP cars.
