Will,
One thing you can be sure of is that the rust damage that will have to be
repaired is 3 times what you have found already. I originally envisioned
renting a welder for a day but after sandblasting I'm still at it 15 patches
later. Buying the Mig for $300 was a very good investment. Its not that hard
to learn but there will be some chicken s**t splattered everywhere for a
while till you get a feel for penetration. A welder would probably charge
way more then buying the tools. Haynes make a couple of good books which can
help, you can get them at Sears etc.
Battery boxes are easy to make as David says and that's the way I went not a
big deal.
