Nelsonian Posted March 29, 2009 Share Posted March 29, 2009 I have come to the conclusion that I am in need of a rotisserie to progress on my 240 rebuild and am looking for a good used one to buy or possibly rent. I am located in San Diego and am inviting anyone from LA areas on down, let me know what you have available. If I can not find a good used one I believe I will just pull the trigger on a new one from carotator.com, use it, then see if anyone here would be interested in buying it from me when my build is finished. As for just building my own, I am disadvantaged by a lack of a welder,welding skills or the time to gather and build a rotisserie. Thanks in advance Chris (619)318-1437 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nelsonian Posted April 8, 2009 Author Share Posted April 8, 2009 Bump, Bump. Still looking for a rotisserie. Anyone know of a friend who has one rusting out back of the house and would like to get rid of it ???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
giorgio61 Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 I built mine out of 4x4 & plywood and HDepot supplies. It worked beautifully for my one project. I did weld the front and rear supports out of 1x1 square tube I got free. The whole thing was about $40.00, and you can have someone (i.e. muffler shop or auto shop) do the welds for you for a few bucks. I slapped some $4.00 HFreight wheels and was able to roll in/out of the garage. I had the 240 on it for about 2 months: power washed, sandblasted, repaired some small rust and replaced the floor rails and door sills, undercoated it and painted the engine bay. I should have painted the complete car on it!, anyway plenty of RPD (revolutions per day LOL!) without any problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
