I'm thinking you're thinking of Leigh Brooks' Rat Resto:

I'm rounding the corner on the prep of my interior for restoration - all the
tar insulation is gone and the floorpan has been cleaned (revealing no
rust!) and prepped for 2 POR15 coats this morning.  
 
I'm now looking for some sort of insulation for the floorpan and
transmission tunnel before I lay the carpet kit I got from Dean (that came
with a pad already fixed to it!).
 
Any thoughts on what type of material and adhesive to use?  I seem to recall
a conversation about a thin reflective material from 3M that reduces the
heat and does a decent job deadening sound.  I don't want anything too thick
since Dean's carpet already has a pad on it, so I would sure appreciate the
list's thoughts.
 
Merry Christmas everyone!
