Thanks for the idea to use...
Not 100% committed to 120V AC but thought it might be a simple set up. I do not have the motors yet nor the axle+gear. Not sure how to source a golf cart motor on the cheap (<$150) considering S&H....
Thanks for your time. I am looking to put an electric motor, preferably 120 VAC, that will allow me to drive the wheel(s) of my restoration rotisserie that supports my '65 Mustang Fastback. Car +...
