Great project. Keep up the great work.

I just started working on a 69 stepside I just picked up that was someones failed project. Took me three trips to get all the parts home. Yours has given me some inspiration. Thanks.

Definitely buy a MIG that is capable of using cover gas and not just flux core. You really need the solid wire with separate cover gas to do clean sheet metal welds. Get some 0.023" / 0.024" wire and a Q-size C25 gas cylinder when you buy your welder.

Once you get your MIG just have a friend who can weld come over and give you a few pointers to get you started in the right direction. It will help you tremendously and get you up & running.
