Did I mention that I think this is for a 348? One note, the subframe to main chassis mount bushings (14 mm bolts toward the back) were changed in later spares production, if you're replacing an entire subframe, compare the new with the old and modify if necessary. | ||

348, 348, 348, 348, 348 I've seen them in my sleep in '94 while we were updating suspension geometry for Challenge cars. The upper control arm inboard mount is lowered 25 mm (don't quote me on that spec) to lower rear roll center (centre for those in the UK) to improve drivability. | ||

It does look quite a bit like the rear sub frame in my car. In fact it looks almost identical. I think its from a 348 as well! | ||

That frame is out of a 348 Ferrari. Note the brackets for the air box position, and there are no transmission mount brakets for the six speed like the 355 has. That cross member is what the transmisson mount bolts to | ||

It looks like the rear subframe for a 3 mount 348 or Mondial T. You can see the forward two motor mounting points, while the one in the center would be used to attach to the upper central bushing on the transaxle. | ||

I will bite. I think it is a front subframe of a 308/328. Me thinks. | ||

It looks a lot like the subframe from a 355, but there are detail differences with respect to the suspension bracketry. For example, the 6-bolt connectors to the rest of the chassis are straignt on my 355 subframe. Then there is that bracket on the middle of the reinforcing section. I will go out on a limb and say its from a TR or a BB. | ||
