Default car on a spit

Hi all.
My father is getting all geared up to start his 3 yr Mustang project, and is looking at setting up a rotisserie (spelling??) ie big steel wheel at each end of car bolted really well to sub frame to flip the thing over and weld etc.
Any thoughts on who might make these things?

Always worth doing a search on this forum for such questions. Here's a thread all about rotisseries, including a couple of plans on how to make them.

Rotisserie plans?

If you're not up for building one yourself, I'm sure any engineering shop would be more than capable.

A slack adjuster and a s cam off a trailer is a cheap and easy option my old man makes and sells engine stands and rotisseries if your interested pm me.

cheers guys, got the plans. looks easy enough, might knock one up myself.
Interesting observation, saw on made completely different awhile back and didn't even think to make an oversized engine stand like these ones. Gotta get the lateral thinking back on track!
