Well,

I put the 37-116 first due to the sheer complexity. No wires needed to go, or almost none, but the sheer number of caps and the access to those in the RF block are a PITA.
Now this said, it was literally the first radio of this complexity I took upon and when I lifted its 25 lbs worth of mess on the bench I got a bit of jitters. Than I followed my gramma advice, "the eyes are scared but the hands keep working" and so it worked out just fine at the end.

AK808 obviously was a mess, and I have photographs of the workplace buried under the insulation chips, literally, to prove it. But the complexity is much less. Oh, and they did use the modular chassis. That was THE pain of it, tracing cracked wires from the subassembly into the main block, changing them etc.

This one, in fact, if it weren't for the capacitors that look like the roaches in the kitchen when you turn on light 2am, would be a simple case. The space is ample, and most wires are cloth-covered, only some are rubber-coated.
