Turn the car upside down  :P Ive seen it done with a chev. Two big wheels that bolt on the front and back so you can just roll it sideways. I thought someone here would have done one, you must all enjoy sliding under a car to weld and grind??? sicko's :P :P ;)

Hello Fast Eddie
                    I  Like the pics ,verey nice rotisserie and wagon.
                    Does the rear fit on to where the bumper & towbar bolt up, and is the front attatched to the bonet  hinge mounts???.
       I have looked at makeing  a rotisserie for my van ,But have been unable to decide where and how to mount It ?  Do I need to brace the car if I spin It as I will be removing both side panels where the windows would be ??.

Brad,

The mounting points are as you state, bonnet hinge bolt holes and rear bumper bar bolt holes.

I'm not sure about your bracing issue though.

Regards

Edward
