Painting and riveting

I have been working on the bird. Got a lot of the interior pieces etched, alodined and painted. I still have the floor boards to do. I have one last panel to fit up then cut the holes in the for the sticks and I will be done with floor boards.
Then I will etch, alodine and paint those. I have purchased the sound proofing that will go on the bottom skins to help eliminate exhaust noises and vibration. Remember, this is going to be a cross country machine so it has to be nice and smooth.
Once I get all of the floor panels sound proofed, then I can rivet the floor boards in place. I also have to paint the lower seat belt harness attachments. These actually get painted the gray interior color.
I will mask them off when I go to paint the interior. But they are buried under the floor boards and stick up through them so I have to get them done now.
When all of the floor boards are done, I will go back and install all of the nutplates that go in the baggage area and the stick covers. Then I will get back on the tail and fab up the strobe light mounting plate and rear fuselage turtledeck stringers.
