Steve,
The "first" car CSX2000 and some other early cars are either shown in period photographs or documented with factory paper work (CSX2018 for example) with Holley® brand carburetors. One exception for sure was CSX2006 which was finished new with a 2V carburetor. One very early HP260 powered car has its engine equipment shown very well in a new car road test article in a magazine, Holley carburetor on an aluminum low rise 1-4V intake and yes an automatic choke.
Documentation is lacking on most details but Ford Autolite® 4100s didn't seem to become the 'standard' until HP289 engines made their appearance.
