ITEM 5.  OTHER EVENTS.

         On July 15, 1996, (the "Distribution Date"), Banc One Auto Grantor
Trust 1996-B (the "Trust") made a regular monthly distribution of principal
and/or interest to holders of the Trust's Class A 6.55% Asset Backed
Certificates ("Class A Certificates") and Class B 6.70% Asset Backed
Certificates ("Class B Certificates"). The amount of such distribution was based
upon the information set forth in the Determination Date Statement (the
"Original Statement") reflecting the Trust's activities for the Interest Period
from June 27, 1996 through July 12, 1996 (the "June 1996 Interest Period") and
for the Collection Period from June 27, 1996 through June 30, 1996 (the "June
1996 Collection Period"). The Original Statement was delivered to
certificateholders and filed as Exhibit 99.1 to the Trust's Current Report on
Form 8-K.

         On August 25, 1997, Bank One, Arizona, N.A., as servicer (the
"Servicer"), provided notice to Bankers Trust Company, as trustee (the
"Trustee"), of the Servicer's discovery of errors in the Original Statement
which affected, among other things, the reported amount of principal and
interest collections received by the Trust during the June 1996 Collection
Period and the amounts actually distributed to certificateholders on the
Distribution Date.

         This Amendment No. 1 on Form 8-K/A is being filed for the purpose of
filing an amended and restated Determination Date Statement (the "Amended
Monthly Statement") as Exhibit 99.1 hereto reflecting the Trust's activities for
the June 1996 Interest Period and for the June 1996 Collection Period in
substitution for the Original Statement. Exhibit 99.2 hereto includes a
reconciliation showing for certain selected items the amounts reported on the
Original Statement, the amounts reported on the Amended Statement and any
variance between the two amounts.

         The Servicer has identified an aggregate overpayment of $104,867.51 in
principal and an aggregate underpayment of $0.00 in interest to
certificateholders on the Distribution Date. The Servicer has waived all claims
which it may have with respect to the amount of the overpayment of principal
on the Distribution Date.

         The Trust's Current Report on Form 8-K filed August 29, 1997 contains
additional information regarding the Servicer's discovery of errors in other
monthly statements issued by the Trust as well as information regarding the net
amounts due and owing to certificateholders as a result of the errors in such
other monthly statements.
