Improve/restore my ZT-T bit by bit or just take it all on?

With this subframe, surely would depend if anything needs welding etc or just surface rust?. Won't really know unless it's removed but even then there must a fabrication company in Holland that can do any work needed?

Very true Jeff, but the cross-tube is the piece that is most often affected by the rot-bug at its ends because of the poor design (re drainage), as you know, and it is an usual shape to boot! I think I read that the MGOC Workshop would weld one in 'in situ', if needs must.

If a ready fabricated solution were available, that would be a big step forward, I think. Mine is still perfectly OK, even after 350k kms., but I check it every time it goes up on the ramp, and I would put a cross-tube piece into the garage-stock if it were available, to join all the other "just in case" difficult and unique V8 parts, bushes, hoses, HEVAC and AC bits, steering, ECU etc. etc. 'Olive' is a keeper, and still a daily-drive car since "birth", so will probably out-survive me that way!
