Original had a thin bituminous material stuck to the floor followed by a hessian like underfelt. It was never really an ideal solution as it retained water and promoted floor rust. Better products exist now such as Dynamat which adheres to the floor and has some thickness to reduce noise. My opinion is to coat the floor well with a rust resistant paint followed by a quality adhesive matting which is moisture proof and sound deadening.

Vern, unfortunately the good old days of super petrol when you could tune your car by how grey the exhaust pipe was are gone. Unleaded fuel gives a very black exhaust. Hard to tell from a description, but an overly sooty exhaust would generally be a sign of burning oil. Be best to compare your exhaust with other older cars (Not modern cars with catalytic converters) to see whether yours is comparatively the same, better or worse.

The vic club no longer manufactures these decals unfortunately. There are some leftover kits which are held by the club, but I’m unsure what’s left. You could contact the vic club directly for information
Regards. Ken

First car is a Castle grey over Corsair Tan car, 3rd quarter 57
Second car is Terraglow over Adobe beige, probably a mid model car. Terraglow is a pretty rare colour.
