What's in your toolbox???

If you where to assemble a tool collection right now, what would the top 5-10 tools be for working on an rx-7....and tools you could actually put in a normal size "carry along, handle type" toolbox....like one you'd keep in your car...or use for going on service calls...
Thanks...
