I would get the body on and get all the body parts fitting correctly before doing any painting. get the doors on and gapped how you want them and then work forward. Fenders, cowl, cowl extension, and then the grill support. I sprayed epoxy on parts as I finished body work on them with knowing I would probably be spraying them again. Your choice though. I have had the doors, fenders, etc. off and on more times that I'd like to admit.
