I was trolling Dallas craigslist for kicks yesterday when I ran into an ad for a 240D motor. One of pictures mysteriously featured a 717.400, so I e-mailed the guy to ask about the transmission and if it was for sale. I didn't hear back, but when I looked at the ad again today, I noticed a phone number listed as well, so I called it.

Apparently, a guy in a 4-speed 240D picked it up a few days ago . So close! Back to the AX-15 drawing board, I guess...
