A ring of nuts and bolts around the cab back, and more through the chassis to the underside, including the X member the shocks attach to and the rear of the chassis legs and the upper panel that runs the width of the car behind the seats. As for floor panels, your best bet are Hadrian panels, which most of the Minor specialists sell. I generally use ESM, and personally would not use panels from Charles Ware's again.
