I would make the point that this is not specifically a historic issue, as in theory it could affect every type of car that has had a roll cage fitted.
Also, what would adding a plate under the shell do? How on earth does that better serve the structure than a box welded over many inches so as to feed the load into both side and bottom of the shell structure? Very odd.

I would not use the word "Tinkering"; I would say "Meddling" or "Interfering" ( Hope I spelt that correctly) GT.
