Tips on body alignment?

As you can see, I'm in the process of fitment of my body panels. I've located new/used doors and finally finished installing the power windows. Anyone have any tips or tricks on aligning up the doors / fenders/ cowl/ hood?

Get the door to shut correctly,using the body lines on the cab and the gap between the bottom of the door and the rocker . Also keep the gap beteewn the back of the door and the cab corner even. Then bolt the fender on and match it to the door
