I will soon be undertaking my first major auto body repair. The driver's side cab corner of my '98 Silverado extended cab has rusted through and I will be cutting it out and replacing it. I already have the new cab corner and will be starting soon.
I know there are different methods of attaching the new panel (wire feed, epoxy, spot weld etc.) and I'm wondering if buying a stitch welder to attach to my (newly acquired) arc welder would be a good idea. My plan later on is to go through my wife's truck (after I've practiced on mine) and repair/replace some of the rusty spots on it. So I would definitely use it for other purposes. I'm wondering if this would be a good way for me to go.
Any suggestions?
