Rotisserie ideas please

Just starting on the old barracuda of unkies and I got some floor pan steel to replace and I'd like to brace the floor some with subframe conns.
I got a nice stall at the yard that's covered and perfect for some blasting, scraping and wire brushing but I want to get it on its side to make its easier.
There's an 8" H section girder near each corner of the stall that goes up about 15', so I thought about constructing a support frame out of 2" heavy mild steel tube that I could bolt the body shell to and get it on either side.
Any tips where to bolt to and how to go about it?

Bumper bracket bolt holes on the chassis front and back mate.

I could have sworn that someone posted a build on here of a scratch built rotisserie. Anyone remember where to find the link?

Might do just that Rog

I was thinking of using 1 1/4" mild steel tube and a mixture of screwed and KeeKlamp fittings.

I used builders trestles and welded up brackets that bolted to the bumper mounts with tubes off them that rolled on the top of the trestle. Worked OK.
