That's a legit concern, but I've seen metal rods mounted across the door opening to give it more strength. That would be my only concern and removing the doors and installing the rod should fix that.

That was what I was worried about. I haven't had the time to measure the stand I have vs the width of the 58. Well, back to the drawing board I guess. Thanks for all of the info.

I've thought about the engine hoists at Harbor Freight. Thanks for the information! I just hate to put out $1400+ on a rotisserie that I won't use but once.

That's a really well-built dolly. I built one out of wood, using the plans I found on here. I really need a rotisserie and have been looking at homemade ones online.

Rotisserie Plans

Does anyone have any good plans for a C1 rotisserie? Can be made out of metal, wood, or metal/wood. I searched the forum and found a few, but was wondering if there were more out there.

Cruisin The Coast

Did anyone bring their vettes down? I talked to one guy that owned his 64 for 50 years. Great story. Tried to talk to a guy with a 60, but he seemed uninterested, so I walked off.
