I have both a MIG and a TIG, but I still like to occasionally pull out the torch and do some gas-welding (did so just this afternoon on a 356 fender!). As Dennis notes, the welds are soft and can be hammered so they virtually disappear. Gas welding is an art, and one worth pursuing just for the pleasure of working with metal. But the best reason to gas weld is it makes you a much better welder with the other tools. In my opinion no one should be allowed to purchase a MIG until they can do a passable job of butt welding 20ga with a torch.
