Serious? This is landyzone.
And no don't buy a disco, silly. You'll still have to weld it, just in different places
Pull all inflammable material out of the way; carpets, plastics etc, protect any nearby fuel and brake lines, the same with wiring looms. I've even seen experienced people welding the floor underneath a vehicle while the carpets inside are quite merrily burning away!
Keep a fire extinguisher within easy reach.
do you mean flammable? inflammable does not burnBut then there is nothing that is inflammable
Clean the area to be welded, disconnect the battery, alternator and starter, flap disc the area to be welded, wire brush the welder return, clamp the return onto the pristinely cleaned bolt/bit of chassis, weld it up

really no need to disconnect the starter + alternator. the earth does not need to be on a " pristinely" cleaned bit of metal, just no rust...
you don't need to flap disc the area either, just a go with a wire wheel. the OP is only stick welding :hysterically_laughi
also I have never disconnected the battery whilst welding on a vehicle.and have never had problems.
