Aluminum, or fibreglass tub interior?
 
what is better or what do you prefer? or a combination of both, like the originals had?

Guess it all depends on how original you want the look.

Aluminum would likely be lighter.

Combo platter; footboxes, floor, and firewall aluminmum the rest could be glass.

The originals use fiberglass footboxes but all the other panels (including the removable tunnel) were aluminum.

Originals had a fibre glass spare tire tray with the rest of the trunk al. One difference I have come across is the rear wheel houses, some were al, others fibreglass. Another choice, black or wite on the footbox/trunk tray/wheelhouse fibreglass?
