Automotive repair tools make excellent fathers day presents for a variety of reasons. For one, every guy secretly wants a garage stocked full of the latest and greatest in auto tools. Even if your guy isn’t a big backyard mechanic he’ll enjoy showing off his high end garage to the neighborhood, he’ll even grin ear to ear as he demonstrates the power of that new air compressor or the strength of those new ratcheting sockets to jealous neighbors. But before you rush out and buy a new OBD II reader, start by making sure your many has the basics stocked in his toolbox.
The most commonly used automotive tools are almost always screwdrivers, sockets, and wrenches. Any Dad that likes to change his own oil is going to need these tools most.

Auto body tools are always a hit with the Dad who has just about every other tool in his belt. Things like grinders, buffers, and polishers are great for keeping Dad’s car looking like a million bucks. Tools like creepers, lifts, plasma cutters and powder coat guns go a long way in helping your special Dad with that classic restoration project.
But perhaps more important than what type of tools you get Dad this father’s day is the quality of the tools you buy Dad. To most men tools are a lifetime investment.
