Default any mig/tig welders in perth

Hi all, i have a bit of rust to fix up on my XC

But the problem is, i cant weld for S***.

I am a poor student so i cant afford a pro, but maybe a back yard welder who is after a little bit of extra cash, or something we can discuss further, would be interested in helping i would love to hear from ya.

Im located SOR but happy to travel NOR

here is what i basically need

Back door (station wagon door) need a simple strait weld, wich will replace the bottom quater of this door, (youll see what i meen)



as well as this, i also need a bit of a more complex one, but im happy with just making it a sheet of steel folded over, so still easy.



Im not sure if whats required is understandable, but i hope it is.

Thanks
jordan

An angle grinder, hammer and a mig can be bought for well under $1k..
Mig is easier to weld as it does 90% of the welding for you. You only need to set wire speed and welding current right...
Some on E bay ???http://shop.ebay.com.au/?_from=R40&_...All-Categories
