A top-quality adjustable wrench is far more useful than a cheap one. Socket sets on sale are a good value. I'd get a small set, and add specialty sockets and other tools as needed by haunting sales for used, name-brand tools. Often enough, tight access dictates the wrench type. Buying new singles is expensive. On older cars, rusted threads can be the major challenge. My favourite shade -tree mechanic is religious about using penetrating oil a day ahead, and putting anti-sieze on anything he replaces.
