Howard, You may be right, however I suspect in fact the floor may not be original and the rib may have been replaced slightly further forward than originally.
Ian, I don't disagree in principle but I doubt the current floors were there 90 years ago. I suspect they were replaced some time ago and the strengthening rib was replaced in a slightly wrong position.
I'm pretty good with a MIG, so I'm confident I could put it back to look exactly as it was before I cut it, however I think I'll make a box up to fit around the bolt hole so that it could be removed again if needed.
Cheers,
Steve
