Holiday gifts for gearheads, Part 4

It's tinsel time in Tinseltown and welcome to the fourth list of car-related presents. I hope they’ve been of some help.

Meguiars_ultimatekitcutMequiar’s Ultimate Car Care Kit
While we would all love the gift of a new car, that’s not an option for most people. But how about a new-looking car? Well, clean, at least. Mequiar’s Ultimate Car Care Kit has a scratch remover, polymer car wax, cleaners for the wheels and tires, and even an interior detailer spray that works on leather and sat-nav screens alike. Included in the carrying case is a microfiber cloth.
$29.99

Neon signs
Now we’re moving into the area of gifts that Taste forgot. But this season is about goodwill to all men, even the ones who would hang a neon sign in their house or garage. This one comes in a variety of designs featuring hot rods or classic cars.
$259

3dhangingshelfcutMustang shelf
It’s a shelf, Jim, but not as we know it. Available as a 1965 Ford Mustang or a 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air snozz, this poly-resin rendition includes mounting hardware. Hands up all those who are cursing themselves for throwing away the furry dice.
$54.99

Next time the guys come around to shoot the breeze (or whatever the guys do), they can park their tushes on these high-back bar stools according to their favorite make of car. Heights range from 39 to 49 inches, the base cushions are 15 inches in diameter and the logos are fashioned from billet aluminum. $139.99

CalcarcovercompanytcutThey’re T-shirts. They have vintage designs on them from the world of boulevard cruising cars and drag racers. They’re made from 100 percent pre-shrunk cotton. Maybe you like them. From $19.99
