A lot been written on these pages re migs pros and cons. If the haynes chassis and various bits are all you need to do then a clark 150 ish size will be more than enough. Its not something I would want but for hobby use no problems , if you need it for fabrication work at a later date forget it and the best way to check out the welders bollocks is to have a look at the duty cycle. The clark 160 is only good for 55 amps at 100% duty cycle where the esab 160 is good for 85% of max power at 100% of the duty cycle. As said before you get what you pay for.
