I'm looking into buying a MIG welder to get started on my Teener. I need floor pans, hell hole, and it looks like a bit around the sails.
I just want a 110-120V unit, but I want a quality unit with good heat adjustability. I'm currently unemployed, so I'm on a limited budget as well. Any recommendations? I've been looking at a refurb Lincoln SP100T for $390 shipped. Also considering the SP140T and Power MIG 140C, Millermatic 140 and Hobart Handler 140. |

I have the Hobart 140 and love it. I have welded the GT flares on my car,welded in various chassis stiffening kits, the Rich Johnson /6 engine mount etc. all with this little welder. Hobart is a division of Miller so it's good quality to. Extra tips,wire are a must. I agree on the triangle magnets and if your going to do items like flares the butt joint clamps are nice also. Agree on the cart also.
