Floorboards, inside the doors with a panel or three, roof, firewall. Look at what vehicle manufactures focus on. They make knockoff killmat on Amazon for relatively cheap. If you want heat insulation they make sense foam stuff noice brand on Amazon if I remember right...

I had excellent results using chicken-wire to secure foil-backed pink fiberglass to both sound and heat insulate the engine dog house of a 1968 mid engine Dodge Van.

Fucking night and day. I'd have to use the heater on the dash.

I secured the wire with little 1/8" screw cap bolts and nuts and washers, but you should be able to figure something out without drilling holes in the exterior body. Probably some spring steel slats that wedge at edges of body panels.
