Now that's a cool idea!  MG did that very thing during a safety
demonstration with an MGB GT, the sills and doors and any other hidden body
cavity was filled with foam.  The car also had airbags, a rear view
periscope, and anti-lock brakes.  Crash testing using this car was very
satisfactory.

Good way to keep water out too :)
