Default Tools...

so, i'm a a couple mods away from the car being finished for now. im looking into getting some tools. we have the basic crap(ramps, floor jack, and etc). but i want all new and i have a cleaned out perfect garage to start building a shop(a mini one so i can work on the stang and etc.) right now my list consists of

-a couple pairs of 3 ton jack stands
-3-ton Floor Jack
- Shopvac, that mounts on the wall
- lugnut wrench thing(it has 4 type thing and is shaped like a + )
- Wrench and Socket set and a rachet(sp?)
- screw driver set
- Drill + Drillbit set
- Lights
- Air Compressor+attatchments(sp?)

add on to the list. any basic tool that will come in handy for working on the stang.

Put it in your shop. Drink the beer out of the keg. When you're 21 of course.

I would recomend getting an air compressor and a few air tools (ie impact gun and ratchets). An air compressor has SO many uses too. If ya already got atleast a decent set of hand tools. I would really get the compressor before the hand tools.
