New to me 1982 Grand National project basket case

[TURNA]

Well guys I bought the Lincoln I just put on my Home Depot card that way I wouldn’t have to shell out that much cash at the moment

Anything Home Dopey sells is built for Home Dopey

There is a good chance that, that lincoln is not the same as one sold somewhere else

Yep, that's one I was using. My only real complaint is the heat range selector; it's got detents. It would be much better as a smooth sweep. There are instances where one is too cold, but the next step up blows through.

Same point I was trying to make about the Hobart 140 but better stated.

I read quite a few reviews and watched several review videos on YouTube I think it will do what I need it to for now, I can always upgrade later

Yeah from what I’ve reviewed there are I believe two or three styles of the 140.

Going to try and swing by harbor freight maybe tomorrow and pick up a cart for it

It will do the job, for sure. Congratulations on owning a welder. It was a big deal for me.

Does it have a gas option?

Thank you! I can’t wait to start practicing with it. I took Monday off so I’m going to try getting it set up before I have to go back to work

Yes it does have the gas option

When my brother bought his 78 Z28 back from our Uncle, I saw the writing on the wall. I went to community college to learn the basics on 3/8" plate, then had to teach myself on sheet metal. Here is the thread on that car if you ever get bored and need something to check out.....

Sean's 78 Camaro Z28

Some of you guys are probably sick of hearing me go on about this car but for those of you that are interested, I wanted to do a build thread on it. A major reason I wanted to do this is that we've reached the major milestone in the project that the paint job on the car is being completed...
