George,
So does Rusty say the R5 is a direct replacement for the R4, which I believe
your car uses? I googled R5 and I have to admit, I never heard of one.

It only covers models listed in the auction. Only thing that would

That's just because most people insist on using 1/8" rods on everything.
If you get some thiner rods and use the proper amps it can be just as
easy as MIG. Think about how thin MIG wire is.

I've played with a stick welder. Dad has one from one of those tool shows, I

Normally you would harvest & peel anaheims when they are green. Oh,
well, have a taste and use your mouth-imagination to figure what they
would go well with when red.
Roasted green chiles, in the proud New Mexico tradition, go well with
anything except perhaps pancakes or ice cream.
