Engine Stand Rotisserie

I'm going to be "coverting" an engine stand and engine hoist for use as a rotisserie and have a question: where are the mounting points others have used - I was thinking of the spring hanger boxes in the back and the suspension mounting points for the front.
Suggestions are welcome!
Roy :cheers:

What would be awesome would be if Ray could produce the rear mounting parts and sell them to those of us who want to do the same thing!!
They would be exactly the same for all of our cars as his I would think.

I designed my own rotisserie, but used a slip on adaptor arm design which can be changed for any body I need to mount. Here is the arm design for my MGA body which mounts to the body mounting locations front and rear. For my Midget I'll mount to the front frame horns and to the rear spring hanger points. The arms are built to enable access to the rear panels for body work so don't fit too close to the panel. More information at https://www.britishv8.org/Articles/Auto-Body-Rotisserie.htm
