Trunk first.

If you are replacing the quarters, you can cut the lower part back (where it's probably rusted out) enough to do inner & outer wheelhouse at the same time. Then 1 quarter skin, then other quarter, then the rear panel above the trunk opening.

Don't weld everything up till it's all sheetmetal screwed in place.

I can't help you much, I'm still doing floors and rockers. I'm curious where you ordered the "speaker shelf"?
