Default Build steps, order??

Guys I am finally ready to start building my 69 FB Conv. I want to learn from guys who have already completed a complete frame off. The car is ready for body work and it is minimal. I am going with a LS 525/Auto crate with either a Ridetech level 2 or Speed tech Pro touring sub and rear system. To take advantage of the warranty on the crate motor would you send the car to body shop to get the lions share of panel fitment and body work done and then bring it back for wiring and engine and trans install and start up? Or, put engine and trans in and then send to body work and paint? Then bring it back for interior? Probably over thinking this but would rather learn from others who have already been through this.
Thanks,
