== Post-war period and later activity == Giovanni Carlo Farina retired in 1948, after which the firm was managed by his son Attilia Farina (1908–1993). During the immediate post-war period, Stabilimenti Farina produced bodies for models such as the [[Fiat 1100]] and [[Fiat 1500]], as well as the closely related [[Simca 8]].<ref name="CarrozzieriFarina" /> The firm also undertook limited series and special commissions, including: * Four examples of the [[Jowett Jupiter]] * Ten [[Ferrari 166]] models (some reportedly associated with designs by Giovanni Michelotti) * One [[Ferrari 212]] In 1950, Attilia’s brother [[Giuseppe Farina]] became the first Formula One World Champion, adding further prominence to the Farina name within Italian motoring history.<ref name="CarrozzieriFarina" /> Ferrari’s subsequent collaboration with [[Pininfarina]] beginning in 1952 further shifted the centre of gravity within Turin coachbuilding circles. Stabilimenti Farina ceased operations in 1953.<ref name="CarrozzieriFarina" /> ----
