Yep been in that situation...my whole shell was like that! Lol
I would fit the rear bulkhead back in position as the dimensions of that aren't critical, but it will only really fit in one position, and that will help with the rigidity ALOT!
You can't fit the rear quarters until the floor is in because you need to fit the stiffener panles where the rear bins are and wheel arch closing panels before the quarter goes on.
I wouldn't worry too much about the door step panel, as that can be fited after the floor.
Have a look at my build thread to see what order I did mine. Doing the floor first worked well, as it acted like a good datum point. if you've got a good straight rear subby you could use that to help position the floor, along with the front subframe mount holes.

Matty, thanks for that. So floor first it has to be then. The rear subframe is new pattern from M-Machine, hoping I can trust that to be sort of square.
Regarding the rear bulkhead, wouldn't I need to have the boot floor welded in place too? Or do you mean just spot the bulkhead to the parcel shelf and tack to the window channel? I've trial fitted the boot floor ok but got as far as clamping on the inner wheelarches before things started to get a bit tough with positioning stuff.
Will digest your thread.
