No problem. You take the engine, and everything else, out before you have 
the body galvanized. I would expect that you would want to have all the body 
panels, doors, and the pan, removed and completely disassembled and 
dipped independently. Of course you would also remove the glass, interior, 
wiring, engine, transmission, drive train, brakes, wheels, and front axle which 
would then NOT be dipped.
