Default Welder advice needed

New member here. Been working on cars & houses for the last 5 years. Pretty much anything I can rebuild.... I will. I currently have a 430 RWHP mustang but looking to possibly do a custom rollcage some some chassis work. The work will be structural so I need a be 100% the welds will hold against stress.

Now - I have heard stories about every type, model, brand of welder. My concern is that I would love to learn how to weld in storage shed in the back of my yard and then move the welder in the garage when I need to work on the car. Obviously I do not want to run 2 pairs of 2 pole 40 AMP circuits. What does everone recommend for an all around welder..... chassis fab, some exhaust and turbo work, suspection work, etc. Something that is easy on the pockets and movable if possible. Am i stuck with only the 220V models or will a 110V that uses gas work?

Any advice would be great. I plan on taking a course sometime this year but want to try it out before I dive in!
