docfx Posted October 26, 2017 Posted October 26, 2017 As per the title, I'm chasing a car rotisserie (in Perth) for my Z project. Prepared to make one, but thought i'd see if anyone can save me the time\effort. Thanks! Quote
PZG302 Posted October 26, 2017 Posted October 26, 2017 I got an ebay one for about $800 used it for about 4 years and sold it for pretty much what I paid for it, so that coulld also be an option. Was easy to adjust to suit the car and spin it to what ever angle I needed on my own, and with half decent castors was able to move it around as needed on my own also. Quote

By the time i factor in shipping to Perth, the cheapest on ebay at the moment is around $1200. i'd rather spend some time improving my welding skills and put the money towards paint. But its always an option i guess. As you say, could sell it when i'm done. Quote
Simestime Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 I shopped round for a few weeks and found a couple of cheap engine stands,got some advice off here from old posts and made one in a weekend for under $150. I did have some shs and rhs laying around though. If your doing this for your rusty resto then your gunna need your welding skills up to scratch.... Just make it overkill with bracing and extended legs.and be sure to check the integrity of the welds on the stands as they are all made in china. Quote
