Dennis does what I do - friction tape. Since friction tape wont stick to much except itself, I use contact cement to hold the tape in position. I also use friction tape between the front of the gas tank and the firewall. When I put together my 28 special coupe, I used friction tape between the metal top pieces and the wood framework. Ford used what is know as dum dum to help prevent squeaks. I think friction tape is just as good and it can't be seen once everything it assembled.
