Who This Gear Shift Sign Is For
Buying it for Dad?
You do not need to know the year or the model of his car for this one. It is the safe pick for a car-loving dad. It cannot be the wrong size, the wrong color or something he already owns, because it carries his garage and his year. Buyers of our garage signs tell us two things: the steel is heavier than they expected, and he loved it. It works for Father's Day, a birthday or a garage makeover.
Buying it for yourself?
You still prefer three pedals. Put your name on it and the year of your car project as the EST date, and the garage stops looking like storage and starts looking like yours.

Dad's Garage Gear Shift Sign FAQ
What does EST mean on the sign?
EST is the year you choose. Families use Dad's birth year, the year of his favorite car or the year the garage was built. You set it in the customizer and see it on the sign before you order.
How do I hang a metal garage sign?
It hangs with no tools and no drilling, on screws or nails you already have in the wall. It goes up in minutes on drywall, wood paneling or a garage wall, indoors or on an exterior wall.
Will it rust outside?
No. The sign is 16 gauge steel with a powder coated finish, made for indoor and outdoor use. Powder coating is baked on, so it holds up to sun, rain and cold on a shop door or a fence without rusting or fading. Wipe it with a damp cloth when it gets dusty.
Is this a good Father's Day gift if I do not know his car?
Yes. The sign shows a gear shift pattern and no specific car, so it fits any dad who loves driving and working in his garage. It cannot be the wrong size, the wrong color or something he already has. Gift buyers tell us the steel is heavier than they expected, and he loved it.
