I started looking into welding equipment for body/hell hole/jackstand repair of my 914. A friend told me that MIG is the way to go for this. My question is what specifications do I need in a MIG welder to get the job done without a lot of grief? Also, what gage steel should be used for making patches?
Thanks |

I've got a Lincoln 135 MIG that does just about anything I need it to do. Definitely get one with a bottle for best results.
Also, with the economy down right now, there are TONS of deals on new or nearly new MIG welders on Craigslist. Check out your local board to see what's available. . . |
