Default Thoughts on replacing quarter panels

I spoke with the bodyman that did my Z and he told me that the car had some pinholes in the quarters when they stripped it and the owner instisted on installing new repop quarters. They welded them on just below the body line and just before the door jamb. Looks like they did a nice job and the car is very straight. My initial thoughts were to replace them with NOS, but then I would lose the dates, factory welds and seams etc. Any thoughts on this? What would most recommend? The car will likely be restored as a high number 2 (I plan on driving it sparingly) or number 1 car.
