I'm starting a new project. I traded my 70 Ghia Vert for a 68 Double Cab. 
Picking up all the parts for the brakes and suspension tonight. When that's 
done I will start building my engine. I'm thinking I'm going to use the 2007cc 
engine that I was going to use in the fastback. All I have to do is reconfigure 
the sheet metal and exhaust.

Mine doesn't have an engine either and I'm a whole lot closer.

Agreed. And when your done with the pressure washer you can come over and do 
mine.

  How dumb is the idea to pressure wash the engine compartment with a pressure 
washer with the engine still in the bus? 
   
  I'm thinking  cover the engine (generator is my main concern) with plastic 
and go after it..... 
   
  It's just really dirty back there..... 
   
  Anything  I should be aware of that I need to worry about? 
   
  Or how stupid is this idea? Denis? Mark? Eric? Ronnie? Dan? Julie?
