Default Body Assembly Dilemma/Question....

Here is my question/dilemma. I am working with somewhat limited space in my garage, so a complete disassembly at the same time isn't possible. My car basically needs all four fenders and both doors replaced. Right now, I almost have the entire front end off of the car and will be sandblasting and paint prep soon. So here is my question/dilemma, am I ok to get the front end done to primer, then work my way back on the car? Or, would doing the door skins make more sense with the front end off the car? Or does it really matter?

You are better off working from the rear towards the front. This way if you need to change the doors or re-skin them, the fenders will not be in the way. The fenders, header and valance should all be done right before paint (such as rust repair and alignment).
