It's norwegian :)
I'm sure PJ Berg could translate the highlights for us.

I know that they sell these, or at least used to sell these, for the Porsche
356s and maybe even the 911s.I guess if you really did a lot of restoration work on the Type 1s, it will come in very handy. I have seen some rotisseries for the older Jeeps go for sale here in Illinois in the past
Here are either rotisserie for cars or plans to build them
Thanks - your link is giving me a bunch of ideas. I'm not a body man, so didn't know those things even existed.
I'm a total sucker for fixtures and like the fact that the bug rotissery shown seems to be fairly well balanced. It doesn't look hard to make at all: some square tubing welded together attached to a sturdy lumber stand might do the trick.
I'd love to put a Harley in a spit like that. Hog roast.
Here's a nice cheap way of doing it-
Thanks, Howard - That's a great idea! There's a tool store nearby that sells those stands for around that price. You got me thinking now..
Sounds like a plan. Put yours on the spit and I'll bring the brews. :)
It works like this - first we build a good big bed of red hot coals under it, then Shabby rides it like those fake bull rides... round and round.
I like the way you think but screw the coals: That fire would get a lot hotter with some nitrous oxide and acetylene. We might be able very quickly melt the whole thing into a hog blob (that or launch the thing - either way, we'll have fun).
Yes it does not look too hard to make, and should cost you way under that $1000 the others sell theirs for too!
Don't forget to get some good casters under it so you can move it all around. ;-)

Now that is what I was thinking!!! A couple of sturdy Engine stands! lol Thanks Howard
