Tom Hodge Posted June 6, 2021 Report Posted June 6, 2021 HI, Looking for an appropriate rotisserie jig to support a GT6 MK3. There are a few on the market. Does anyone have any experience of these and advice? Does anyone know of a second hand one to buy? TIA Tom
Mathew Posted June 7, 2021 Report Posted June 7, 2021 Used mine to restore two spitfires, usually come up for sale between 100 and 200 pounds. Great for making welding in the right position. Get the sills welded in position with the body on the chassis first, and floor pans at least tack welded when on the chassis. It makes line up better. Even on the gt6 i would brace the doorway, definitely with a spitfire. Saves being upside-down welding!
ed.h Posted June 7, 2021 Report Posted June 7, 2021 Tom-- If you are planning a rotisserie restoration, you presumably have some welding skills. Have you considered building a rotisserie? Ed
Tom Hodge Posted June 7, 2021 Author Report Posted June 7, 2021 Thanks for that , where did you buy your jig from as there are a few companies selling them . Thanks Tom
Mathew Posted June 7, 2021 Report Posted June 7, 2021 Mine came with the car! Bought an abandoned project 6 years ago, i often see them come up on ebay though.
Tom Hodge Posted June 8, 2021 Author Report Posted June 8, 2021 Hi there, anybody dealt with Ade Forman light engineering company for Rotisserie jig’s their heavy duty one looks good and is not a bad price . At the moment there appears to be no 2nd hand ones on ebay Tom.
Jezter Posted June 10, 2021 Report Posted June 10, 2021 Hi. I bought mine from rolloverjigs.co.uk and paid just over 400GBP.My welder and painter both thought it was a great piece of equipment and now that I am putting the car back together it is proving invaluable as it puts it at a good height for woking and, by being able to roll it, it makes some areas a lot more accessible.
Tom Hodge Posted June 14, 2021 Author Report Posted June 14, 2021 Thanks for that GT6 is looking good. What have you still to do to finish the. Project.Tom .
