I decided to build a Body rotating device. Seeing the car is a convertible, I decided to make a support under the body to ack as a frame.
I would apresiate any advice on this. The biggest question I have at this point is where is the vertical center of gravity on the 68 convertible? I don't want a big surprise when I spin it upside down. Thanks for your input!

68, I have a friend who built one that bolts to the brake drums. It is made from 2" gal. pipe and it kinda looks like a rocking chair. He hooks his tractor to the car and pulls the car up on to its side. The only problem is you have to work outside.

I am hoping to work on the body without the frame, so it doesn't get in the way.
Here is a link to a picture of what I want to achieve. I found this picture on the ultimate GTO site. http://ultimategto.com/frameoff/69mork14.jpg Thanks again

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
