Technical Replacement Front Subframe?

[Tomskii]

Good afternoon, I have recently acquired a 1993 Fiat Tipo I.E project car, and I've been making good progress with the restoration. However, I've came to a bit of a standstill with the repairs.

My front subframe is completely rotten and requires a replacement.

I have since checked EPER for a partnumber and have been unsuccessful in locating a replacement part.

Does anyone know of any alternatives I could purchase to fit?

Only close alternatives are the same subframe (crossrail as its called on EPER) from Brava/Bravo/Marea and certain Coupes. These don't have the same part numbers as the 2 listed for the Tipo but are close. It's a shame I am so far away as I have one very good Tipo front subframe.

That looks to be in great condition!

Would you consider delivering it to Scotland? I would be very much interested.

I'm not sure how shipping would work to Scotland given the weight of the subframe, probably need to be put on a pallet and would imagine not cheap to get it collected and delivered. I found an even better subframe off a 1993 car.. forgot I had it stored away.

Oh that looks perfect and it would definitely work perfectly for the Tipo I have.

How much would you like for it? Would you like me to look into couriers that could deliver it to me in Scotland, or do you know of any couriers that would handle this sort of item?

If you want to PM me we can discuss further. Might be best look into collection from your end. I would be taking the steering rack, wishbones and anti roll bar off that subframe to reduce the weight.
