I am doing a 82 frame off, I saw on here someone had made up a Rotisserie for a frame by using 2 engine stands, If anyone has a photo of this please post again or pm. Thanks!

This was mine.....





It worked really well. It sure was nice to be able to flip the frame over by myself.

I never thought about using engine stands as a Rotisserie. Good thing I saw this thread.
