Bill,
I haven't bought mine yet but I agree with a65ragtop. I'd get the lincoln 220V unit. The larger unit will give you greater flexibility. We've used lincoln's exlusively at work for years (although we don't mig weld). They make great stuff. The only POSSIBLE other unit I would investigate would be a TIG welder in the same basic size. That would probably double the price, but they are more flexible.
Personnally, I'm going to stick to oxy accetylene for a while. Not the best thing for welding in floor pans though.
