Hi all, I've just registered and first time poster. I hope I'm posting in the right place and not breaking any rules.... I was wondering could someone just confirm that 'AN365-1032' nuts are used re: the highlighted section of my linked picture?

No, the bolts are threading into K-1000 nutplates that were installed on the rear spar in a previous step.
The reason is that once the skin is installed the nuts would be inaccessible so if the brackets ever needed to be removed from the spar for some reason, you would have to do some major dis-assembly to do so.
 
Include plans page number and figure number and step number with your posts to make it easier for others to understand the situation.
See Page 06-04, step 6, figure 2: K1000-3 Nutplates
