But they are expensive and dull quickly. On my 72 stang I ended up just used a regular drill bit and then an air chisel to separate the panels.
 
PLASMA CUTTER lmao :) but you probly didnt need to here that...yea man seriously a drill bit...several drill bits actually and a good strong drill
 
I got mine at NAPA, like this one:

to save drill bit, first, drill a pilot hole using a smaller drill bit, then go up the a bigger size. might take awhile, but you wont be spending 6-8 buck per drill bit.
 
I second the dewalt bits. They work awesome!
 
okay thats good there is a lot of spot welds on this mustang so hope to get it restored soon.
 
Also restoring 66 mustang here, and I use the spot weld bit like in post #6 :)
