it all depends if the rest of the vehicle is in the same condition (rusted) and also safety wise ..you have to ask yourself would I let my family ride in this car knowing that it could break again on the highway doing 80mph....if you do weld it you will have to make sure there is good enough metal there to weld to and you will have to reinforce it ....I would get somebody that knows how to weld good do the job ...have it done right the first time and you wont have to waste time and money having done again if it is a cob job
