Default door assembly

Hello
I am going to be putting the car in primer and then assembling the doors in the next couple of weeks
I bought a couple of books for assembly purposes, but does anyone know of something that is ignorant or difficult for this( order of operations maybe?)
I do have all of the parts( I think) I just did not take them apart, and what I did remove was some time ago
I can figure it out, I just am looking for tips that may save me a lot of time.....which I don't have a lot of
I will be sending pics in very shortly for a project update
take care
Tom

Tom, do you have the factory assembly manual? Not sure if that will provide the order of what you need, but if you don't, I can scan the pages in and send to you.

Hello Herb
I do have the factory assembly manual and a 63 vette shop manual.
I know sometimes with repair books, things go relatively easy on paper. I am just not sure if there are any little things to watch out for that are not explained very well
thanks
Tom

This appeared on the 'other' forum yesterday. It applies to a '65, but it may be of some help. Good luck!
