8R01J240242, Build date Feb 7, 1968.

Neil

Check that, I'll bet that it is 8R01J140242.

Mine is 8R01J137614, build date Feb 5, 1968.

Neil, ours are really early in the first 200 group. Likely the first 50 or less.

Sure that it is 140242! Two of the earliest builds and again prior to the debut! Both may have had the hand built scripts. What DSO's did they go to?
