WTB: Cheap welder
#2
I don't have a welder for sale, but it might help if you add a few more details. What do you consider cheap? What kind of welder are you looking for, MIG, STICK?
You can get a 90 AMP Flux core wire welder for $119 at Harbor Freight. They also have a 120 AMP stick welder for $79.99 I would imagine either of these would be OK to learn how to weld with, but once you learn they probably aren't going to be much good for any welding you would need to do on your car. IMHO
You might want to consider taking a class at you local community college or Vo-Tech. I'm taking one right now and I have to tell you welding is not as easy as good welders make it look. It take lots of practice.

Being a Welder for about 10 years I would have to make some reccomendations. Lincoln,Miller, Hobart,Esab all make good welders. I got my first shop welder from Sears. Get a mig welder that is capable of at lest 3/16 single pass and has a high duty cycle. A welder with a higher duty cycle will allow you to be able to make continuous welds without a lot of cool down time.Sears has a Lincoln thats a great start up welder. Just thought I'd share that with you,Mike
