Hi there I'm busy doing my first rebuild of my series 2 rs turbo, iv welded 4 x new floor plates in, I need some advice on what to do with the old floor numbers. I still have the small patch of plate with all the numbers present, my idea was to try and cut a patch out of the new floor plate and weld the old patch back in and flatten off the welds but if I ever go to sell the car people mite think that it is a ringer. What should I do?

Thanks

 

If you take photos of the process and the floors pans you have replaced and build up a folder of the resto to go with the car if it ever sold , you should not have a problem ,if i were buying it i would like to see the original number in the floor

 

Iv took photos of the old floor pans before I cut them out and also of the new ones which have been welded in , do u think if I took a pic of the cut out of the numbers next to the new floor pan and then welded the number in place and took another photo that would be OK.

 

Nice to see im not the only one from the northeast.
