Adding to what Scwhartz said....
I always have several sticks of 3/4 X 3/4 and 1 X 1 for bracing etc... and you'd be shocked how fast you can use up 30 or 40' of this stuff!
I also stock some various "strap" material -- 1 X 1/4" and some 1 1/2 X 1/4" - and 2" etc.... I like to have a few different widths and thickness. Amazing how many things you can use this for.
Also - I have angle iron -- and I use that a lot - not for the cars - but for making various things around the shop. It's simple and easy. I might need a piece to built a ledger for something and it's easy to clamp etc.
Once you start carrying some of this stuff -- you'll want to build some kind of rack for storage - you'll get real tired of moving it if you don't.
