[N/A-PWR]

Hi ALL,

Was looking for Torana Transporting Roller Frames and came across the HULA HOOP and thought that we could show all the Jigs Everybody have made to Rotate the TORANA for Restoration, now these are not TORANA's  in the Frames, but is a Start:-

And this one Shows how you can Tape of areas for Spray Painting:-

I will be doing something to make life easy with cleaning up a TORANA and how did you do yours. Dave I

 

p.s. being able to Fabricate your own Jigs is an Advantage

seems like a rather over engineered setup dave, and the obstruction from the mounting points. i reckon the style that has the bumper mounts are good, and easy to make

Kinda makes sense but I think if I had a body so rusty you couldn't swing it on a normal rotisserie then I'd be doing a bit of work to it before considering that also. Stability from the four corner legs would be good in some ways but as Stinga says I wouldn't sacrifice the access for it.

 

A bare Torana shell weighs bugger all

Thank-you Stinga and 76lxhatch,

Great Bumper Bar Unit there. Dave I

 

p.s. edit - connect the Hula Hoops to the bumper bar area if you were to make them

 

p.p.s. nice shot of an empty shell

pinched from another forum -

Very Nice Garth,

Great Job Pat,

 

An effortless and balanced rotation jig, well done, and 

 

another thing, compared to the hoops, is that where you stop,

 

the body can be worked on without movement, cool. 

[N/A-PWR]

I bet,

 

the only way to go

 

I can tell you, made working on it easy as + it allowed me to paint the underbody as a bonus.

 

The unit has now been deployed to help somebody else do their car.

I need to do the same

Another Excellent Job Al,

 

Can see the wheels made the Unit a bit higher,

 

but helps cleaning the area up easier, from able to move around.

 

Position locking, and been able to shift the Torana outside made easy too.
