Need help mounting car on rotisserie

Richard Casto · **Posted:** Mon Jul 16, 2007 11:25 am

I am looking to mount my 914 onto my rotisserie one day this week or early next week. The car is fully stripped down and looks just like my avatar. I haven't weighed the car, but it is light enough that I can lift the front or back by myself, but it is bulky enough that four people would be ideal (one on each corner). Car only needs to move from about waist to chest height. I don't feel comfortable trying to crib up something and do it alone.

So I am looking for three volunteers to meet me at my house in South Durham/RTP area at your convience to lift the car up and mount. I expect the entire thing to take 20 minutes or less. Other than being out of town this weekend (Friday and Saturday), I am pretty flexiable on time. If you can help me out, I will see what I can do on the free beer, pizza or cookies front!

Info on the rotisserie is here...

Richard,
I would be glad to help. I live close to you and could do it later this week or next week.

Sounds like I live sort of close to you. Not sure if I'll be in town this weekend, but I could maybe lend a hand any other time after work, or the following weekend.

I can probably help, I just need to know a time. We're out of town this weekend, next weekend, and the one after that.

I can help, just not this coming weekend. Name a time and date, and I'll try to make it.

Richard, I'm sure you'll be able to get enough help. Why don't you name a time and a date and see how many people are available. Other wise you're going to be juggling dates and times. I'm available too.

Thanks for the offers!

Lets just say this week is a wash as I am going to be out over the weekend and I just realized I need to change the brake pads one night this week on the Odyssey.

How about after work (7PM +/-) on one of these days next week...

Tuesday 7/24
Wednesday 7/25
Thursday 7/26

Let me know which (if any) works for you.

Thursday works. Have beer, will lift!

Michael Westerfield · **Posted:** Tue Jul 17, 2007 10:23 am

Those three days work fine for me.

JamesFeinberg · **Posted:** Tue Jul 17, 2007 10:29 am

I can do any of those days.

Bernie Baake · **Posted:** Tue Jul 17, 2007 11:57 am

I'm good for any one of those days

Scott Johnson · **Posted:** Tue Jul 17, 2007 12:26 pm

I'm out on Thursday, Tues and Weds are fine.

Sounds like you have enough, but if not I'm available on any of those days as well.
