My buddies dad made it for his old caddy but it works great when he did it he didnt center the car so he needed a cumalong to spin it but i got it almost perfect so it goes by hand nice and easy.
Ok here is the video of it spining over. You can hear all the shit in it falling and rolling around its kinda funny.

I usually see much older cars on rotisseries, but I guess. Older cars usually need new floor/trunk pans and such. That's why they're on them. Why are you stipping the undercoating?
Ok, what I'm trying to say is...
1. Your supra is in such good shape why would you strip it down to that extent? No new sheetmetal going in.
2. Usually that how vehicles with any value are professionally restored. Most people wouldn't waste their valuable man hours with a $4200 car trying to do that. If you're going to sell this car I doubt someone is going to pay an extra $15+ grand for this service. Kinda pointless.

Three reasons
1. i welded in the rollcage which started lots of fires with the undercoating so that needed fixed.
2. The car had lots of parts where it had scraped the ground and taken some off and a little rust was starting.
3. Some jack ass before me kacked it up in all the bad blaces and smashed it up so im pulling all that back out and boxing in thoses sections and stiffing it up.
This car is about 75% race car and 20% street car so i want everything done right. And i am never selling it but what you claim the car is worth wont even cover the chassis work let alone the over 10k ill have in the motor and drive train.
Looks good! More pics of cage please? Im still on the fence, but leaning towards no cage, since mine is 95% street.
