Default welders in new mexico

Hey everyone, is there anybody who knows of a good welder near the Las Cruces, NM area? El Paso is fine, too. i need to get new floor pans welded in. Also, do u think i would b able to do it myself? i dont hav much money to spend and my floor pans are so bad that whenever there is any pressure you can feel them crunching under you. is it too terribly hard to weld? if i could do it myself that would b best. any tips? thanx in advance.

do u mean a welder like a person or a welding machine? if i was you i'd prob not want to weld in floor pans having never welded before....or at least might wanna practice a little first...lol

it would suck to be driving down the freeway and the floor fall out or something......

Yeah - this could be a real dangerous situation.

Check with the local high schools, or vocational schools, or even a prison nearby if there is one nearby. Some have automotive shops and would probably love to be about to work on a vintage Mustang.

I guess you are in Las Cruces,, me too, I know a guy here that has done some good panell repair for me, he is a certified welder but he dosent weld for a living anymore. He might do it for you, and I can show you some of his work. If you are interested get back with me.

BTW, my son has a 66 as well.
