do u mean a welder like a person or a welding machine? if i was you i'd prob not want to weld in floor pans having never welded before....or at least might wanna practice a little first...lol

it would suck to be driving down the freeway and the floor fall out or something......

Yeah - this could be a real dangerous situation.

Check with the local high schools, or vocational schools, or even a prison nearby if there is one nearby. Some have automotive shops and would probably love to be about to work on a vintage Mustang.

I guess you are in Las Cruces,, me too, I know a guy here that has done some good panell repair for me, he is a certified welder but he dosent weld for a living anymore. He might do it for you, and I can show you some of his work. If you are interested get back with me.

BTW, my son has a 66 as well.
