That's odd. I met a gentleman one day who told me that he owns the 
first automatic off the production line. I can't remember what the 
VIN was, but it was either 507 or 509. He said that he picked it up 
directly at the Jersey QAC. The car is only about 3 miles from here. 
I'll see what I can find out...
