If you can weld laying on your back, you'll be fine. Remember that the "frame rails" on vintage Mustangs are pretty much just sheetmetal anyway, so try to concentrate your weld puddle about 70% on the subframe connector to make sure you get good penetration (always a good thing!) and you'll be fine.

Yes, I do. I've only used a 110v wire-core welder once and was very impressed with it. I was in another shop doing a balancing job on a fan and when the time came to weld the weights on, all they had was a 110 mig. Not only did it do a nice job, but there was less spatter than I thought there would be without gas. The trick is to move slowly, weave slightly ( I make small "c's" when welding heavier stuff) and practice with similar gauge scraps before you do the real thing. Also, make very sure everything's clean by going over it with a grinder to remove any paint, undercoating, rust, crud, dog poop and whatever else may be stuck to the frame rails.
