Default welding/cutting question

Hi, first off, i am clueless about welding. I need to replace my quarter panel on my 93 civic hatch and want to do it myself. i need to know 3 things

What method of welding should i use to weld on the new quarter panel?

Where do i purchase this type of welder that i should use? and whats a good welder for it? like brand, power, ect..?

What type of cutting tool would i use to cut out my original quarter panel out?

drill out the spot welds and use a air chisel or a hammer and a flat screw driver/ chisel to seporate the peices... but dont bend the crap out of it make sure all of the welds are cut out ,.. then tack it the new piece in with a mig ,... take ur time and set it up DONT RUSH IT !
