Hello. I recently purchased a mkIII that is 90% complete. Minus bodywork and tune the engine. It has the 5.0 mustang with a gt40 tubular intake. The car was assembled and driven lightly but never took the body off for completion. My question is,should I fit the doors and hood before removing the body for paint or should I paint it assembled after the final shaping is done?

Fit everything on the chassis, then take it all off to paint it.
