Great work so far with the engine & bearers. One thing to note - the inner panels of the forward fuselage were not wood, I saw a photo of the restoration of the Memorial flight Spad XIII and the inner panels were painted the French bluish-gray color as you used on the fuel tank next to the seat. I believe these panels were sheet metal therefore needed painting to prevent corrosion.
