There are still a handful of weeks before Father’s Day, so there’s no need to take this as a reminder that you need to scoop up something like a thoughtless Hallmark card on your way home from work, scribbling a quick “Thanks for everything” before putting it in the mail with a crooked stamp and dusting your hands off after a job poorly done. We’re here to help you plan ahead and pick out a gift that does a bit more justice to the relationship you have with Dad.
Not all of us can say that our love of cars came from a fatherly influence, but it’s so often the case that we trace our automotive enthusiasm back to the garage where we first learned how an internal combustion engine worked, or to the couch where we were given commentary on old motorsport magazines that he dug out storage as soon as you were old enough to understand why people might like to race one another. Perhaps it’s the other way around and you’re the one stoking the enthusiasm, but whatever the case is, these gifts will help to communicate how you feel.
Gift Cards (LINK)
No plastic cards to keep track of, and no need to write notes about how much is left on them either. These cards are digital, range from $10 to $500, and can be redeemed on every single poster, hat, shirt, watch, bag—the entirety of the Petrolicious Shop is at his disposable. For the fathers out there who know what they want or simply enjoy the process of figuring that out for themselves.

If he drives a classic car with a wooden steering wheel a nice set of driving gloves will elevate even a typical weekend cruise.
