I just used some comercial grade carpet mat. You can use anything that will prevent vibration and squeeking for the mat inbetween the body and frame. I had my radiator installed prior to installing the body. I had to remove it to lay the body on,also remove the tires and headers. I made that gas tank strap to mock up my tank ,the tank will go in after you install the body. I made some plates on the top side of the trunk floor just for more strength. I still havent bolted down the body yet im waiting for my rims. They should be done in a couple of weeks. Any other questions just ask away,Richie

O wow thanks for the info I like the color I thought about BMW LeMans blue but now I think it's 2 purple. I will diff find a color and get him a sample. On your gas tank it looks like it bolts to the frame I set it in the frame and it don't reach the front cross bar.

Funny thing with them, i told sonny i wanted guardsman blue. He said no problem. When i got the body it was a little lighter than i wanted. They gave me a touch up quart and it said zat blue. If you want something different definitely give them a sample. The finish is really nice.only problem was they forgot to give me the doors with the body. They shipped them ups and were chipped when i got them. I had the body shipped from plycon. The cost was about 800 dollars,well worth it the company handeled it like a million dollar car.
