Default Welding a 6 point

I'm finishing up my drag car and I need a welder to come out to my garage to do the welding. I'm having a hard time finding someone to come to me. I will pay whatever needed for traveling. I am located in south Jersey

My garage is in Mt. Laurel, about 20 minutes from Atco. The car is completely empty and ready for the cage install. The 6x6 plates have to be mig welded and the bars need to be tig welded. Thankyou for the responses.

like you said,the hardest part is gettign someone to come to you. I have a 115v MIG w/gas you could use,but to bring a tIG up there you're gonna need a guy with one on a truck and crap,he's not gonna be able to just come plug it in to any ole outlet. We could TIG it at Racecraft,but that's about 45-1hr away from where you are.

Thankyou for the help, I was looking for a mobile truck with a tig welder. I know it is going to be hard to find.

Sorry for the OT, but did you make your own cage or buy one of the kits?
I'm at a crossroads right now between buying/making.

I think if you went to a local welding shop and talked to a couple guys you would get good advice on how to get this done. At worst I think you'll probably have to trailor the car somewhere. Good luck.

I know Dave, I don't know if he has anyone that can come to you though. This cage was purchased from KensKustomChassis.
