Default Cherry picker as a rotisserie

Has anyone used a cherry picker as a rotisserie (the lifting portion)? I found a car domain page with a guy who did this. I am only looking to do this for a short period of time to paint the undercarriage (maybe 2 days at the longest). I would build something to brace the car while it is on its side and mount it like a rotisserie is mounted, I would use the cherry picker just for lifting and leave it strapped up as a saftey device. I am just trying to figure out where to lift the car from without causing any stress or damage. I really dont want to buy a rotisserie for just a couple hrs. of work and I haven't found one to borrow or rent locally. If this is a horrible idea I will just lay on my back and use jackstands. Here is the link to his thread, he is a member on camaros.net. I pm'ed him but I was wanting to get a few opinions while waiting on him to reply.
