Hi
I have taken just about every conceivable pic of my car on the rottiserie, have installed all the parts, suspension, brake lines, gas tank, heating, cooling lines and am wondering if anyone needs a specific pic of the car frame before I take it down.

Will be posting pics of what I have done so far later this week, but jut want to make sure I have the right ones if anybody needs something.

Thanks
Bob

I got the rottiserie from a boat manufacture we used to have in town.
I modified it to fit the car by welding square tubes on it,made U bolts to fit the bumper holes.
made an adapter plate out of 1/4 steel for the back bumper to fit tube.
The biggest pain was balancing it so it was easy to turn,
I will have a lot better picturs of it and will post them to show how it works

They were selling a couple of styles of those in Daytona at Turkey run two years ago. Have not been able to find them since then.
Any clues as to who might still be making them?

This one is on E-bay right now...

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2465285134&category=10076

There is a company that makes them, but I can't think of the name right now. They sell them at the swap meet in Jefferson, Wisconsin in the spring and fall, but they do sell them at other shows. I don't believe they are a local company.

Here is a different company...

And 1 more....

Hope that helps....
