Ok, I have the truck almost apart, and ready to start doing the rust repair. Question is, do I have it sand blaster and primer it first, or do I do the body work first?

I've seen it done both ways on different shows, but to me, it would be easier to see what needs to be repaired if its been blasted and remove any bondo, etc. But I wanted to get the general opinion first.
