EDIT: One of the reviews on the Spin Doctor tools kits suggests that "The lockring tool is for modern lockrings, not for the ones found on fixies or for the lockrings found on loose bearing bottom brackets from 80s road bikes." Not sure that would be a good choice, given that.
You will find some bicycle will require specific tools. But I wouldn't worry about what might be needed at some future date.
My first restore... required more elbow grease that anything else. And then aluminum foil and chrome cleaner.
I picked up my bicycle repair stand at Performance. But I also found a decent one on Amazon I bought for a grandson.
