Ford's Top Ten Gift Ideas
for Father's Day
by Kraig Johanssen
Father’s Day is coming up
fast, have you thought of a nice gift for dad already? Sure helping him
fix his car would be nice, but how about giving him something new?
If your dad is a Ford fan, he’ll love what Ford has in store for him for
his special day. Of course it will be you who’ll actually go out of your
way to get him one of these items, but Father’s Day comes just once a
year so why not make it special? Your dad certainly deserves the treat.
Below are ten dad-friendly suggestions from The Ford Collection (www.fordcollection.com):
Keep Him Safe: Show dad you care by buying him a Ford Emergency Roadside
Bag. The $75 Ford-branded carrying case holds a flashlight, jumper
cables, mini air compressor, emergency tire inflator, two bungee cords,
pliers, screwdrivers, shop towels, gloves, a rain poncho and a 38-piece
first aid kit. There’s even a roll of duct tape. (And dad knows full
well duct tape is the solution to any problem, automotive or otherwise.)
Let Him Rock: He sent you to school, so help him enter the school of
rock with a new Ford guitar. This Fender® Sonoran acoustic model
delivers classic unplugged sound with a stylish blue-burst finish and
Ford script. The six string costs $350 and features a solid spruce top,
mahogany back and sides, Venetian cutaway, and Stratocaster headstock.
Rock on, dad.
Decorate His Den: A treasure trove of poster-ready images chronicling
Ford’s history can be found online at Ford ArteHouse through The Ford
Collection. From racing heroes to concept cars, Mustangs to
Thunderbirds, it’s all there. Prices start at $17.99 and framing is
available. Photos of the new Ford Shelby GT500KR are hard to ignore. The
car goes on sale next year, but posters are available today.
Empower Him: What dad really needs to get his engine running this
Father’s Day is a new engine. Specifically, a 514 cubic-inch,
625-horsepower Ford Racing Performance crate engine. For $8,100, this
V-8 monster will show up on his doorstep. Some assembly and installation
is required, so make sure you visit www.fordracingparts.com before you
buy.
Help Him Be On Time: A wristwatch is a safe bet for gifting. The new,
Cobra Leather Strap Watch is a favorite among the many distinctive
watches available through The Ford Collection. Priced at $85, the
stylishmen’s timepiece features a genuine leather strap and Cobra logo.
It is delivered in a stainless steel case and includes luminous hands,
date function, and is water resistance up to 100 feet.
Make Him Feel Like a Kid Again: Truthfully, he won’t fit. But even so,
dad can appreciate the timeless appeal of a great pedal car. This year,
consider a classic ’32 Ford. With prices starting at $249, there are six
pedal-car models, including a flame-painted hot rod. The official 75th
Anniversary ‘32 Ford Roadster is a great choice and benefits a good
cause. For each anniversary model sold, pedal-car maker Warehouse 36
will donate $10 to the Juvenile Diabetes Research Fund.
Make Him Feel Like a Kid Again, Version 2.0: Dozens of die-cast models
are available through The Ford Collection, spanning the entire history
of Ford Motor Company. Models include a 1913 Ford Model T, a classic
Ford F1 pickup, and even a 2006 Ford Fusion. Limited edition is the way
to go when your inheritance is on the line, so consider Franklin Mint’s
Ford Shelby GT500 die-cast. Only 5,000 will be produced, making it even
more rare than the real thing. And prices start at $120, well below the
production version.
Fix His Drive: New to The Ford Collection this year is a custom
Nike-brand driver with the Ford Blue Oval logo on the grip, an ideal
gift for dads that duff. The large head driver delivers high resistance
to twisting and the thin-titanium face provides great forgiveness. It
slides neatly into any golf bag for just $239.
Beat Him in Pool: Dad loves his rec room and will love it even more with
a new pool table handcrafted by Olhausen®, America’s premier
manufacturer of professional-quality pool tables. The made-to-order
tables are crafted in traditional wood styling of matte mahogany or
distressed matte cherry. Each table features unique brass Ford Ovals
embedded in the side rails and Ford Script custom carved into the table
frame. Mustang-themed tables are offered as well. Prices start at
$3,700.
Keep Him Warm: The Ford Collection offers a coat closet full of jackets
and fleeces, but your dad is probably Built Ford Tough and should dress
the part. Priced at $95, the Built Ford Tough Cheyenne Dri Duck® Jacket
is a classic quarry-washed canvas work coat that provides maximum warmth
and durability. The hooded jacket will stand up to what dad dishes out,
thanks to triple knit stitching, a heavy duty metal zipper, and rib knit
cuffs.
The Ford Collection was launched in 1997 and now includes more than 750
unique Ford, Lincoln and Mercury branded items. In all, Ford Motor
Company manages one of the largest licensing operations in the world,
with more than 300 unique licensees.
