A good list! I've got a similarly long list, and I think it's good to
a) work through ticking things off so you can see you're making progress
and
b) plan so you're not endlessly duplicating - at least any more than you do..!

With the engine, box and diff now in I suspect it would struggle with the weight - but it's certainly a bit of a pain to push it in and out sometimes!

mine has a little 4 wheel trolley under the rear. I have more room but it makes moving it much easier.
