Brad,
Although it may not be original I would certainly be practical andcreate
some space between trunk floor and petrol tank by fitting a few rubber
strips or blocks under the tank leaving a space of about 1/2" to let air
circulate and dry out possible condensation which otherwise may rot out
the tank and/or trunk floor. I have seen this happen lots of times with
various cars.
