To complete the fuselage assembly, the rear section is designed to slide over the front section. Just smoosh it on there as far as it will go. It seems like a weird construction method, but when I had it all together and compared it to a three way side view of the dauntless, it was pretty darn close. I am disappointed that the joint is so obvious. It's due to the thick 110 lb paper, made worse by the overlapping glue tabs which doubles the paper thickness. But, stock is stock, and this is the Fiddler's Green assembly method in these early kits. Can't be helped.
