For anyone using a rotisserie for thier 914, what is the most assembled 914 one has put on it?

suspension ?

doors and lids?

glass?

this is also with the assumption the motor and transmission is always removed

We ARE talking about your car?

If you didn't take the motor out, when you flipped the car over it would make changing the oil real easy.

Look up the capacity on the TWO engine stands that 99% of the kits use. I'm guessing 1500lbs total.

Well Im planning on getting myself a gift, post holiday ...a rotisserie. The restoration of the 74 has stalled of late and Dave Hunts efforts are making me feel worthless an weak!
I stopped by a local FLAPS and spotted a display stand that (x2) was near PERFECT for the job, unlike the eng. stand solution. Contacted the manufacture and struck a deal.
So heres the idea, this is a call out to the NW club contigent. Ill hopfully be done with this work .. by summer, but I wont need or have the room for the Rot. after the fact. Is there enough intrest that this could be passed around the club members?
How about enough intrest to assist me with with some welding ?

I put a fully dress car onto my homemade rotisserie minus engine and trans.
Then I took the various parts off when it was in the air, suspension, doors, hoods.
I then gave my rotisserie to another member on this board after I was done. Maybe he can also chime in on what he did.
Morgan you out there?

Heres a pic of one stand. One nice thing is the upright unbolts.

You'll have to raise that somehow. It looks low. Nice though. I like the wide base.

Here is one on ebay right now:

I would definitely build my own at that price.

It's going to be mighty hard to rotate the car with the square tubing

That was my point about the uprights unbolting, I can replace them with the "correct" uprights fairly easily.
