it does look like a $hitty weld i would grind and cover pass it atleast
it isnt hard, 7018 would flow nicely,and look good and is strong ,you can use stick or wire,i like stick, but i havent doen it in a few years

I have no idea who did it but it is a strong weld and it has good penatration. It was raced for numerous years with no problems.
