The Ford Barn

I'm building a hot rod from parts (No complete car is being sacrificed for my project.) It's a Brookville body on an A frame, V8 engine and all early V8 running gear. I did a 2" kick up of the rear crossmember which now goes through the seat base. As I look at the current situation, it appears that there's a lot of wasted trunk space with the seat riser configuration. So, I'm contemplating making up a new trunk floor that will be flat and sit on the sub-rails with one skinny but high kick up to go over the rear crossmember. Has anyone done something similar? Got pictures?
Thanks!
