A few good things to get to get started with for bodywork:

Reciprocating body saw
Hammer and dolly set
Lincoln 110v MIG welder
Cutting torch
4" grinder (I have both air and electric, I like my electric one better)

"The Keys to Metal Bumping" book

A few key air tools:

Air hammer
Impact wrench
Tire chuck
Aforementioned body saw
Die grinder

That should be enough to get you started.
