kind of a wierd ?, but need advice...

alright guys, i just got the motor and trans pulled out so now there is just a chassis and suspension. now should i put the tires back on and roll it out of the garage to degrease and pressure wash or should i finish taking apart the suspension and clean everything piece by piece until i'm down to just the frame? and how heavy is just the frame alone?

i'm afraid if i pressure wash it all at once there's so many nooks and crannies (brake lines, fuel, ect..) that it would end up being a waste. any ideas and advice is welcome and appreciated!

and i should probably tell ya what the goal is huh??LOL frame off resto. the frame is going to get cleaned, maybe a little wire brushing and sandblasting? and finally painted. new/reworked everything till i get her back to a rolling chassis.
