I guess I could just bolt something new on, as you suggested, but the issue is that my car has not been registered since 1996, which means that it gets the proper Roads & Traffic Authority inspection sticker rather than just taking it to a mechanic. The RTA have a reputation for being very strict on rust repair. They have been known to put a car up on a hoist and tap all over the underneath with a pointy hammer. If the hammer goes through, they fail the car.

As a general rule, what gets cut out, must be welded back. The tray might not count as a "Panel", so I might get away with bolting it. No harm in trying I guess, but time is limited.
