Which is easier - Front Clip Install w/ 1 or 2 people

[Blue_Aura]

Ok, so I am in the process of sanding down and painting the inner fenders and radiator support on my '62 Shorty. I have the front clip off and it might just be me and my non-mechanically inclined 11 year old boys installing the clip afterwards. My question is... Which would be easier to perform with little to no assistance...

Separate the outer and inner fenders and radiator support, paint them separately and the reinstall each piece onto the truck...

Or separate the outer and inner fenders and radiator support, paint them separately and then put the whole front clip back together before reinstalling onto the truck...

Or, just spend a lot of time masking off the outer fenders and all nooks and crannies in order to prevent over spray onto the body paint, then paint inner fenders and reinstall front clip?

So far, it seems that the prep work would go a lot faster if I took everything apart. I'm just worried about the alignment of all the pieces once I try to install them back onto the truck (if I end up separating the front clip).

Need ya'll's advice. Thank you.
