what my next step

I am working on my truck getting ready to do sheet metal repairs, cab corners rockers and parts of the floor etc. and the doors also

I have removed all the interior of the cab and I am ready to remove it from the frame to make fixing it easer. (also the whole truck won't fit in the heated shop over the winter and still leave room to work).

I have all the sheetmetal parts needed to do cab repairs but have not orders any sheet metal for the doors yet, Was hoping to have found a better set but no luck yet.

questions is, do I fix doors first, and then start working on the cab? Or fix the cab first?

next question Do you blast the cab and doors first, have primed and then do metal repairs? Then after repairs are done have do you blast it again in order to have all the seam sealers put on, From what I understand seam sealer needs to be put on bare metal? I assume this project might take a year ot tow fore ready for final painting just a note

I was hoping to use a epoxy primer, and then paint it the original copper like bronze color.

Not sure what is the right order of things or if it all truly matters
