Nothing unusual about having it and I'm figuring out the best way of dealing with it before we start dumping massive amounts of salt on the roads around here.

It was suggested to me that after cleaning the seams of rust to weld them together to prevent it from happening again.  Other than the obvious thought of the additional difficulty of removing any panel in the future if needed and some additional body work to smooth them out before repainting, are there any other items that would suggest welding the seams is a really bad idea?
