MIG welders??
What is a good but resonably priced MIG welder out on the market? What should I look for? Obviously this would be for welding body panels.

I've got a miller 135 that I gave $700 for 6 years ago works great for sheetmetal & stuff up to 1/4". I mainly bought it because I ran out space in my breaker box. I can go across the steet and use my neighbors 185 I also have access to a 250. Mine has worked just fine for the sheetmetal and fab work I do at home. I would reccomend the 185 for the best all around welder for up to 3/8" if you have enough electical service at your house. BTW the price included the bottle 10lb spool and cart. I'm just partial to Miller because I can fix them and thats all I have ever used for MIG & TIG.

I have an unlimited budget. That bad part is I have already used it up.

Buddy if you can hang on for another month or so I'll sell you mine. I have a Miller 135 that I bought brand new 2 years ago. I have a argon/C02 tank, Welder cart, and auto-dimming sheild and gloves. Everything you need.
