    Ratchet wrenches are always nice, a volt-ohm meter, if youre rebuilding an engine then a pistion ring filer and compressor, feeler gauges and air tools.

      Totally agree about rachet wrenches. Best invention ever. Just grab tools and a gift cetificate to your favorite junk yard

                      They're okay. With a 6-puck you have to be careful, I've gone up and over more than once, which means I have to jack the car up anyway to get the damn things out from underneath the rocker panels.

                      I typically just jack the car up and set it on the ramps if I'm not doing something that involves taking the wheels off.
