I just got a Lincoln sp-135t from a guy at work for $250 including a harbor freight auto darkening mask. I haven't used it but it looks feels sturdy and works with both gas and flux core wires. You can get them on ebay in the mid $400 range.

well Im looking to weld other ---- like traction bars, and some fairly thick plating
Would I just be better off with the dual mig 151 from chicago electric for like $225, or this lincold weld pak for $450??

If your going to do thick ---- I'd reccommend something running off of 220V, like a 180. I have a hobart 180 mig, and I love it. It lays some of the cleanest welds. I got a kit, welder, cart, gas, setup, wire, gloves, a wire brush, and a slag hammer (useless if your using gas) and auto dimming helmet for like 700 at tractor supply. All I had to get was a tank.
