F-4 restoration begins - after 15 years in storage!

After 15 years in storage, i just started restoring my 48' F-4.
I removed the clip-front fenders and grill in one piece.

Im wondering, when the time comes, do I put it all back together and set it on the frame as i removed it...in one piece?

any guides on re-assembling out there?

welcome,
I'd take every piece apart to paint, restore etc....
and then put them back together on the chassis/cab one piece at a time. only sub-assemble small thing like hood emblems/latches and grill, lights wires.
