Tekton and harbor freight are your best friend.
Go to harbor freight and get a toolbox, 3 ton jack, and 4 jack stands. A creeper is nice to have.
If you want sockets and ratchet from harbor freight, get the Icon ratchets and Pittsburgh sockets.
I suggest Tekton from Amazon. Start with the 3/8 set, then get the 1/2 and 1/4 set.

That'll cover your socket needs for the most part.
For wrenches :

With a toolbox, Jack, Jack stands, socket set, and wrenches, you'll be able to complete most jobs.
Over time, you'll accrue more tools as you need them. I'm a mechanic by trade and, even with a fully matured tool setup, find myself buying tools I need every once and a while.

> ... the best ratchet set for under $70 ... but just the standard sizes
This $67 Tekton set would be a good choice. It includes the most commonly encountered sizes in both shallow and deep sockets:
90 tooth ratchet and a full lifetime warranty
It doesn't include all of the sockets in their more expensive $125 set
But you won't find a set with that range of sizes in your less than $70 price range; barring a very lucky find at a yard sale/e-bay/Facebook Market place.
