Removing the body from the frame - question

[Polishmeatballpizza]

I came across some of those DIY rotisseries, made out of wood. Looks pretty inexpensive. Sure would be nice to have the car on it's side...

I am not sure how I would go about securing it, and making sure it would not tweak the body, especially since it's a convertible.

Anyone here built their own rotisserie?

Here is a link to 35chevcoupe's thread.

There are a couple of pictures of the one he built.

I looked through that thread; didn't see how the car body is attached to the rotisserie. I wouldn't mind doing something like that,  however, mine would be a lot more primitive. In reality, I would just need to tilt the car up about 45 degrees, that would allow me to get at the underside easily.

The arms go under the body and are attached with bolts at the original mounting points. Two in the front and then two in the rear.

Thanks Loren.
Of course, what could be simpler?

How do you get to the body mount hardware above the rear wheel? It looks like it's boxed-in.

George, could you post a picture of the area you're asking about.  I think you're referring to mount 5 but I'm not sure.

Yes, #5.

 I built mine you can see it in my pictures. I made mine steer but you don't have to do that.

Dear George, Morrie, and mid-60s fans of "barbecued bodies," . . . . .

How do I see your pics?

Here is at least one post where you can see Morrie's "barbecue rotisserie":
