Subject: Scott's Problem on Automorphism Towers

In his textbook, Scott asks whether the automorphism tower
of a finite (not necessarily centreless) group is eventually
periodic. Does anyone know of an example of a finite group whose
automorphism tower is eventually periodic but not eventually
constant?
