Thanks to Synchro909 and a few of our "south of the equator" friends from "Down Under", We ( I ) do not want to swap over to Left Hand Drive, RHD is what makes things a little more interesting and is part of the history of the car. I'll start with a wrap and as far as the clutch and brake peddle openings I was thinking of using some EPDM rubber strips attached on the underside of the floor boards that leave a slit in the middle for the peddles to move freely but keep "most" of the opening closed off. EPDM will handle up to and about 1000 degee's F. Here in Florida is now 91 and up (F) and very humid for at least 8 months a year.....being a Phaeton its bearable to drive other than on your feet and legs!!
