I'm getting my project car in about two weeks and will need to weld on the rear fenders before I can begin any body work. Anyone have any good suggestions on welding on rear fenders. Any tips on what type of welder to use. I use to use a mig welder. Unfortunetly I do not have a welder and will have to rent one.

(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/idea.gif) Home depot has lincoln mig welders starting around $200. You'll probably spend $45/hour to rent with some 3 hour minimum. This way if you bought youd be able to get back up to speed instead of rushing the job.
