Reassembly advice

Work on the 55 first series truck we bought a couple weeks ago is underway.

The front left cab corner was rotted out, so I removed the door and fender for access. I also took out the front grill and just to make things easier for painting and since I was in the mood, took off the right front fender and door as well.

So it is just the cab on the frame. Front inner and outer fenders and grill are painted and ready to put back together after the cab is painted.

My question is what is the best way to put it all back together? Would you recommend assembling the entire front clip and then install? Right now I am looking at putting inner and outer fenders together, then installing those on the truck, followed by the grill and bumper.

I could get it back together but realize there are many people out there with more experience than myself. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Marc
