Rotisserie or not?

I've got a chance to buy a realllllly heavy duty rotisserie. The guy selling it just took an early 70s Suburban off of it! He's asking $500. I know its overbuilt for my 46 Ford, but the price seems right, and it would make things a whole lot easier. It would also (more than likely) push out the completion date, because I had that $500 earmarked for some other stuff.

What do folks think?

I priced the metal to make one myself last week and it was around $450. Prices are really crazy on metal.
Let me know when you're done using and want to resell. I'm in the same boat about comtemplating building one. . .$450 for parts and would like to think that my time is valuable. Regardless, anyone have any good plans for a car rotisserie?

The time you save will be substantial and you will probably do better work with it. With the time you save maybe you can work some overtime and make up the difference. Don't sell it when you get done unless you have to because odds are you will use it again for another restoration.
