yes.(3200) Not a bad price. Be sure to get gas when you start welding on the body.

My Jeep cage was fabbed out of .120" wall tubing which is typical for that application. 1/2" tubing is pretty thick stuff, usually only found on heavy duty sized axle tubes.

If you have an electric dryer outlet, you can plug your welder into it. Go to Lowes and pick up some heavy gauge outdoor wire (rubber shield, rolls-up nicely) and the appropriate plug ends and you're good to go.

You'll never come close to welding anything that thick on your Mustang, and even if you needed to, it wouldn't be with a 110V welder.

Good luck!

seriously. im not saying that different welders are not better or worse depending on what you use them on. but a torch would weld a rollcage/exhaust/body panels/etc. a good 110 volt mig is great for the home welder, should work fine. you dont really need anything that can weld 1/2 thick plate steel unless you are building a skyscraper in your backyard, or are doing some major fab work. my point is that any of these welders are fine butyou must learn to be a good welder in order to make good welds.i prefer mig myself. good luck.
