Workin' on stitching leather for the cockpit coaming

Sanding, sanding, sanding on the spun nosebowl

Getting ready to flush rivet the nosebowl to the cowl sides

So far so good...

Camlock receptacles installed around the cowl seat

Lots of polishing after the riveting!!!

Came out OK for a novice polish job.

Everything is clearcoated with Aerothane to keep it looking nice.

The engine is all plumbed up.

Needs to be wired, some standoffs installed on the hoses, and some safety wiring.

Pic of my massive windshield and the overflow bottle on the vent line of my gas tank.

The coil installed just beside the coolant reservoir.

The beginnings of the N11 trailer...More to come...
