Best tip I can give you is to practice before going anywhere near your chassis, and once you have done that, then go and practice some more
And resist the temptation to start on the chassis until you are confident of getting a good weld everytime you pull the trigger

Cheers

I've got a welding tuition DVD which helped me. "Essential MIG Welding"
You are welcome to it for a few beer vouchers to cover postage.
