Mike, there are two types of wrenches that are indispensible when working on old iron (and newer iron as well!):
1. Impact wrench
2. Fire wrench
The impact wrench will break bolts loose that would have been twisted off with a breaker bar and cheater pipe. The vibration works them loose - I very seldom twist a bolt off using the impact wrench. I prefer the air powered, but electric are also available if you don't have a good sized air compressor.
The fire wrench is an acetylene (sp?) torch. You can get a decent set up for under $100 from Lowe's or Home Depot (at least where I'm at) and they can point you in the right direction to get tanks (you can rent or buy tanks).
