Easiest thing to do ....

Keep the old site in the root directory and develop and test your new one in something like /dev or on a subdomain dev.domain.com, once everything works then move it over to the root :)

It's much easier than trying to redirect this and that way and when its time to migrate you only need to update a few settings in wordpress, instead of messing around with htaccess
