I went with the Mig welder.B  Fairly easy to learn to lay an "accepable bead,
and the heat level is adjustable so you areB  less likely to end up with a
body full of holes (but you still CAN).B  The key is to get some scrap sheet
metal and Practice, practice, practice till you get a good feel for the heat
and speed setting.B  Be really great if you could take a round of welding
instruction at a local vocational school's evening adult classes if there are
any around you.B  Then weld a lot of unseeable parts like the flooring or
bulkheads before you go to visible body panels.B  And when you get the welder,
also get the body clamps you will need.
