What Welder to buy, I show my ignorance inside! Options

[Hawktel]

Okay I figure might as well take the plunge, and buy a welder.

I know nothing about welding. I've never welded anything. I think I understand the basic principle. But if you were to blow a couple hundred bucks, to have a portable weilder setup, just work on cars, what would you get?

I was considering this little unit off ebay.

Specifically, I'd want to use it to replace the battrey shelf, some trunk rust repair, and replace some brackets for the floods and such.

If you wouldn't use the above, what would you use?

Dont forget about Century. I have a 25 yr old Snap On Mig made by Century. Its a left over from the body shop. This thing has been used and abused by every bozo I ever hired. I had guys intensionally try to wreck it so they didnt have to work. (funny how hard someone will work not to have to work...
