Welding Automotive bodies, TIG or MIG?
I need to do some minor body work on my Jeep Wrangler. What kind of welder to buy MIG, TIG or MMA? The reason I ask is because there is a sale going on at Harbor Freight and I think those are good deal for the money. Let me know…it’s for my garage, so nothing exotic!

Dont get the stick rod welder form there. I got the same stick rod arc welder from northern that harbor freight had and it wouldnt weld much even on high setting with the smallest diameter rod it would still stick to the metal. Now the blue cased wire fed non gas welder I got from Northern for $100 works great. I think you can get the same blue cased one from Harbor freight. If so I would go with that if the wire fed would work good at body welding but I know it worked good at welding small delicate pieces I had.

Wire feed would work fine for that, but get a machine that is gas capable. If you don't, you will be kicking yourself later.
Eastwood has a new line of welders you should check out, here's the 110v one:
