Just bought a 66 vert to add to the stable. Little more rust repair than I have done in the past. Thought I'd buy a plasma cutter to help with pans, torque boxes etc. Seen some on ebay for $400 looking for a deal but something that will last. Any good recommendations.

I have an ESAB, and am very pleased with it, but it was a lot more then 400.00. The problem with doing frame rail jobs, is you are trying to cut out rust, and plasma cutters by design work on a good electrical ground, something that rusty metal doesn't provide.
