Welding, paint, would that mean that I would have to enter the 'modified' section at the international ?

no it wouldn't, it would mean you have hidden the fact that someone had drilled two holes in the apronNikki&Austin wrote:Welding, paint, would that mean that I would have to enter the 'modified' section at the international ?

Strange , but could be a long badge bar. Has this car ever been photographed at an event with this modification fitted ?

Apparently it came second in the a35 (shiny plinth) class in 2010, but no more prizes to justify a 3' very long bar !

Re: Holes in Front Plinth ?
not sure where your getting 'plinth' from, the only plinth i know of is the bases for the side lights, the panel where your holes are is on the front apronNikki&Austin wrote:Apparently it came second in the a35 (shiny plinth) class in 2010, but no more prizes to justify a 3' very long bar !

Re: Holes in Front Plinth ?
I can't imagine what else unless it was two individual badges, perhaps a club badge and a RAC/AA badge? An old gent in my village used to have at least 20 badges on several bars on the front of his aging Nissan...Nikki&Austin wrote:... 3' very long bar !
