Don't think this has been asked before but what's proper with the original manufacturing/assembly markings when doing a restoration. For example, the engine tin and rear control arms painted number markings. Should they be painted over and then somehow replicated new?? Or masked out and painted around them??

Here's what I think:

If you restore a part (i.e. paint) the QA marking should be missing (after all you re-painted and Fritz was not there to stamp it).

Original always trumps restore.
