Default '69 Floorboard Question???

I have a '69 Vert that Iam completing a frame-off restoration on. I have a couple of tears in the glass on the passenger side and the glass is pretty thin. My question is are there supposed to be some metal trays that sit under the seats that make the seating area more rigid or do the seats just mount with the four bolts that have the metal threaded plates on the underside?

Thanks

I believe this is the way it was done.

I agree thats the way it was done. I'm also doing a 69 Vert frame off and here is the floor in it.

I'm in the same place right now on my 69 vert. I plan on adding some glass mat to make it stronger.
