I chopped all those dash mounts off and cleaned it up. It seems most people running a stripped interior leave them there. For some reason it drives me nuts.
I'm also looking into using bead blast material to texture the floor paint. Even though this is nothing close to a "show car" I think all the imperfections on the floors will make it look half ass. Its a cheap way to get this look:

my friend in sprinhill did something like that to his 1950 ford coupe. all the floors and even the inside of the trunk has this grity liner stuff that was srayed on.

I got asked about sound deadening and heat shielding on another forum. Its going to sound like riding in a coke can. Only the hardcore are going to be able to handle a long ride in this sucker!
I'm going to use flexible heat shielding on the engine bay firewall and then on the inside firewall. That might help a little but not much. The engine is going to kill your ears anyway
Here is a example of the heat shielding for the engine bay (interior side will be silver). I hate the color gold, but I think it will look pretty cool against the zinc green. It looks like something you would see on a NASA rocket:

I started messing around with the gauge pod and figuring out where/how to mount it. I photochopped the gauges in there too.
I also made a template for the driver floor board. I was thinking something like these:
