Re
The lincoln Ideil is a good machine.It runs smooth anyway.So is the truck body worth keeping around or is it just more clutter I'm a miller fan my self but if
I had a truck body laying around verses a welding machine that could possibly bring in more cash so i can buy the miller I realy want well you know.

My Syncrowave 250 was about $3500 ready to weld , includeing an argon bottle, so unless the welder is in really good shape you might be getting the raw end. I dont know how the Lincolns compair price wise , but I'm sure you would be satisfyed with the machine. Then again if you cant sell the truck body and the welder is in good shape , it might be the way to go, especially if the truck body is outside in the weather getting rusty and loosing value.
To all who contribute to this board.
My sincere thanks , Pete.
