Another Bugeye question.

I received my Bugeye title today and have a question:  The title lists the 
car as AN516894.  I believe that it should be AN5L6894, am I correct in 
thinking that a 58 Bugeye would only have 4 digits following the "L"?  My 
books show the first Bugeye as 501 which would make mine the 6393rd car 
made, but did they make that many in 1958?  I have looked in the several 
books on my shelf but didn't find the production info.  Did later Bugeyes 
roll over to 5 digits following the "L" once past the 10,000 production 
number  I also want to order BMIHT certificate and need to make sure it is 
correct, the car has a 1275 so engine number won't help.  I thought I would 
try to get my local DMV to make the correction on my title, fat chance don't 
you think....

Thanks,

Mark
