Hey Gar, welcome to the club.

If you want to get things professionally done, get in contact with Ger (irlmin). He has a garage over in Ballincollig.

If you live in or near Cork and want to have a go yourself, don't mind someone who has 0 experience with welding bodywork (but does have experience welding other things) help then give me a poke. I do also have a mig welder. Keep in mind, since I have never done bodywork before, I have no idea if I would be any good at it :P
