Enjoy pinstriped drinks at home for $19.99
Set Includes:
- Two Pint Glasses
- Two rock glasses
- Available in red, blue or green pinstriping.
These glasses allow the gearhead in your life to show off their love of car culture, even when they’re sipping a drink by the fire during the holiday season. This set comes with two pint glasses and two rocks glasses, and is available with red, blue, or green pinstriping. (Bonus points if you order glasses with striping to match the hot rod in the garage.)
Choose from 13 of Dave Shuten’s custom designs for $19.99
There’s something about a dressed-up performance engine that can be even more interesting than the car surrounding it. Hot rodder extraordinaire Dave Shuten created these shirts to celebrate the art of the hot rod engine. And there’s something for everyone, from a blown Ardun to an injected Hemi, 409 Chevy, and Nailhead Buick. And they’re all drawn in this dramatic white over black style that celebrates the design and performance of days gone by.
A pedal car, parked neatly under the tree, starting at $239.99
Whether you’re shopping for a kid or a kid at heart, pedal cars make great gifts. These little ’55 Chevys are a cool tribute to the vintage pedal car and to the Tri-Five Chevy. They are available in red, blue, pink, and the hot rodder’s favorite black with flames. There's even a primered, customizable kit that leaves the painting and modification up to you.
A little bit of useful & a little bit of fun for $49.99

Help them lift, store and install their V8 safely for $79.99
Engine Storage Kit Includes:
- Lift Plate
- Adjustable Leveler
- Rolling stand
Car guys always seem to have spare engines. We may only have three pairs of socks, but there are at least four engine blocks in the garage. This kit not only makes it easy to pull and install almost any engine, but also offers a rolling stand to store spare Small and Big Block Chevys. The lift plate and adjustable leveler offer a safe way to lift the engine and make it easy to maneuver into place. And that rolling stand is just the thing to get that block you’ve been falling over off the floor and rolled out of the way until it’s needed.
Ditch jumper cables and instantly jumpstart a dead battery for $54.99
This handy little gadget made our Racer Gift Guide as well. Really, they are a great gift for just about anyone with a car. Believe it or not, these tiny jump packs store enough juice to jump a dead battery, yet they’re compact enough to be stored under the seat or in the glovebox. These can really save the day on a road trip.
One size really does fit all. Choose any amount between $10 & $200.
