Do you have or know a dad who loves cars and enjoys working on his own vehicle? Or maybe he’s just started DIYing cars and can’t wait to dig in deeper. If you’re not sure what to give him for Father’s Day, we have a wide selection of tools and equipment that’ll make all his automotive and other DIY projects go smoothly, no matter his skill level.
Father’s Day Gift Ideas
Useful Tools
Any DIY dad could make use of some new tools this Father’s Day. Tools with multiple functions are especially great, like these 7-in-1 combination pliers or this 19-in-1 ratcheting multi-bit screwdriver from GearWrench.
If your dad is new to the DIY game or is trying to start his tool selection from scratch, he may appreciate this comprehensive 115-piece mechanic’s hand tool set, which comes with a convenient carrying case.
To help him carry all his tools, check out this two-drawer packout toolbox.
Cleaning Supplies
An automotive dad takes pride in how his car looks, inside and out. Cleaning supplies are disposable products, so a DIY dad can never have enough of them.
This heavy–duty cleaner will come in handy for cleaning away tough marks and stains. Pair this with some Armor All cleaning wipes, which come in a convenient case for dad to use on the go.
Or cover all the bases with this car cleaning kit, which includes car soap, rim cleaner, fabric cleaner, and microfibre towels so your dad can give his car a professional clean on his own.
If you want to step it up even further, consider gifting your dad a brand new power washer. This will help him clear away dirt and soap from all kinds of surfaces, including his car.
Workshop Upgrades
The right workspace can really inspire the DIYer. Help your dad perfect his setup with some new garage additions.
Are your dad’s tools ending up any old place in the garage? Especially where he can’t find them? Gift your dad this tool cabinet, which he can keep stationed in one corner of his garage or move around to wherever he needs.
Another useful gift is a mechanic’s creeper or seat, which will allow your dad to work more comfortably and take the strain off his joints.
Smaller decorations like vintage tin signs or LED light strips can add personality to your dad’s workshop. In the summer, he can open his garage, invite friends or family over, and enjoy a drink while basking in the sun, his nicely decked–out workshop beckoning behind him.
Car Accessories
What would a list of gift ideas for a car fanatic be without a few car accessories?
To keep everything in place in his car, your dad might appreciate a car organizer and trunk organizer.
Or, if he hasn’t changed them in a while, consider gifting your dad some new LED headlights to brighten his way home.
A portable power bank can really come in handy during those extra-long journeys, and this one comes with a built-in flashlight, too.
