What are yall going to get your old man for fathers day?
Im between a fresh set of Hoosiers and this vintage McGrath shirt from procircuit. https://www.procircuit.com/pro-circuit-peak-honda-tee-small.html
Does anyone know of any cool old man stuff? My dad likes Bob Hannah and old Husqvarna stuff the most.

My dad used to always talk about how much fun he had with his Evel Knievel toys growing up and I just happened to see an ad that they were re releasing the stunt cycle so I snagged one of those to give him. Hopefully it brings some fun memories back for him.

The whole family went together and got Dad a Cushman Scooter. They have started producing them again, looking very much like the models from the 50's, being called Cushman II. He liked the "Eagle" model in red, so in for a road trip to go pick it up here shortly. One of those scooters is the only thing he was ever told "NO" about from his folks, even if he paid for it himself.. So, 63 years later, his wish is coming true. The little fucker should run decent, being powered by a single cylinder, 404cc Subaru utility engine. They're being produced in CA, and have 3 retro models that look really cool if you are into that sorta thing. Dad is acting like an 8 year old waiting for Christmas.......

I have had his cars detailed by a mobile company we trust for Fathers day and birthdays quite a few times. At first he was mad because he does a great job himself and pridefully but after a few knee replacements he appreciates it quite a bit these days.

Got my dad this 10-50nm torque wrench for his retirement gift last month. He’ll be expanding his moto shop now that he has more time. I got it engraved at the mall. You could also get it engraved at a gunsmith.

This awesome! Was one of my favorite toys as a kid in the 70’s and early 80’s. If my son got me one I might lose my composure. Good job! Your dad should love it!
