Sears has some nice sales on tools that would be good for you. Check today's paper, it appears to be Saturday 9/30 only.

$298 - 33G/150PSI compressor, 1/2" impact wrench (gun), 3/8" ratchet, air hammer, 25' hose. Go jump on it. Real good deal for a starter set. It might not paint cars, but you are years away from that anyway. I think this is an all day deal. The compressor is $30 off, and the tool kit is usually $100.

Then you just need a spark plug adapter (like $15) and a valve spring tool (like antoher $12) and you can do your valve springs on the car.

Also, some 50% of deals from 9am-noon on Saturday, including $49.99 for 104 pc 'mechanic's tool set'.
