Getting motor onto engine stand without cherry picker only tractor.

I got a motor stand for christmas, so I decided to put it together today...

Just got in from 'dads' big shop. (His is bigger,cleaner warmer). My motor is 200 ft away (over grass/dirt). It is a complete 350 with tranny and all accessories. I want to get it onto the stand without dropping it or damaging myself lol (and dad). We have a tractor with frontend loader and or my pickup (steel floor). The motor has oil and accessories on it.

Need to take tranny off before I move motor or after (im thinking before)

Need to take accessories off before or after?

Need to take heads off to lift motor onto stand?

Trying to make this clean as possible. Motor is already greasy etc.

How do I go about this? This is my first motor ive played with. I wanna take it apart see what It looks like then let it sit in the garage (is this ok If i keep it oiled) and when $ comes together take it to be machined.

Does this sound like a good plan? What should I do or not do? I wanna take it apart

Thank you! I hope this is the right section to post this..
