The New “Wheels” Tee and Refreshed Favorites in the BaT Gear Store — Explained

Byjustpastevehicles

This year is flying by, but our crack Merch Team hasn’t missed a beat. A new haul has arrived in the BaT Gear Store just in time for Father’s Day, and we’re excited to show it off!

The Wheels Tee features a collection of our favorite hoops on the front: Monoblocs, Fuchs, Cromodora Stars, Magnum 500s, and Alpina Turbines, to name just a few! The shirts themselves are 100% cotton items from Comfort Colors, and we’ve found them to be quite sturdy with a versatile conventional fit that runs true to size. The Wheels Tee costs $30 (which includes free shipping to all US states!) and unisex sizes S–3XL are now available in the BaT Gear Store.

 

 

Our Countach Line Art Tee has been a favorite for a few years now. We’ve ordered up a new stock of black shirts in sizes S–3XL. All feature an ivory graphic on the back and a BaT logo on the left breast. The shirts are on sale now for $30 each (shipping included).

Finally, we are reissuing the popular Alfa Romeo graphic tee in light blue. The back features a stylized depiction of Randy’s former Alfa Stepnose taking the racing line through the Nurburgring Carousel, and on the front, a small BaT logo over the left breast. Sizes S–3XL are available, and the cost is $30, which again includes shipping to all 50 US states.

That’s it for now, but it’s certainly not all. Our collection of hats, apparel, and accessories is growing faster than ever. If you’re in need of a Father’s Day gift, or a suggestion to send to your own progeny, The BaT Gear Store is a great place to start!

    sludgo’s Mile Markers: Mile 225

    I parked the ‘B in the expansive and empty red-brick portico and got out. Walked in through the giant wooden front doors that looked like they weighed a ton each but opened easily with just a tug, shutting themselves behind me with a gentle thunk. The smell inside the place was more of a scent—faint whiffs of cinnamon mixed with pine and roses. Orchestral music wafted softly throughout the foyer, itself a grand affair with vaulted ceilings and ornately carved Gothic woodwork and thick indigo-blue carpet. No one was manning the receptionist’s station, but a silver bell was resting on the front counter, so I gave it a ding, and that’s when I met Penny.

With nearly 1,300 listings currently live on the site, even we have a hard time keeping up! But we love to take time each week to pick out a handful of the most interesting and significant vehicles from the last seven days, just for you.

    Byjustpastevehicles

    8/18 Update: the final three cars from the Swig Collection are now live! Check them out below.
    Our very own Howard Swig grew up in a family famous for automotive enthusiasm, and in his 10+ years at BaT he has been instrumental in building this site into what it has become today. His late father Martin was the San Francisco franchise dealer for at least 17 different marques, keeping up a vast inventory of interesting vehicles with a heavy focus on imports like Alfas, Datsuns, Saabs, Toyotas, Mercedes trucks, Sterlings, and more. He later went on to found the California Mille, inspired by his participation in the 1982 Mille Miglia Storica as the sole American entrant. His acquisitions of several interesting racing and sports cars formed the backbone of a collection that continues to be kept and enjoyed by the rest of the Swig family. Today, we’re excited to announce that six cars from the Swig Family Collection will be represented here by @FantasyJunction, out of Emeryville, California, and many will be offered with no reserve.

    We’ll be sponsoring the 70th anniversary of the Hillsborough Concours d’Elegance in Burlingame, California. Over the decades, the Concours has brought a plethora of vintage iron together, making it “the longest continually running Concours in the world” according to the organizers. If you’re attending, visit our big-top on the fairway of the Crystal Springs Golf Course, where we’ll feature a trio of enthusiast cars and hand out free giveaways. It’s happening on Sunday, June 28, from 10:00am to 4:00pm, and additional details can be found here. Grab your tickets now! BaT users can get $10 off their Sunday tickets by entering code BAT26 at checkout—available for the first 200 tickets sold. We hope to see you there!
    We’re coming to the Rose Cup Races at Portland International Raceway on July 11 for a BaT gathering with Local Partner @911r of the Avant-Garde Collection in Portland, Oregon. We’ll have a large area for enthusiasts to display their interesting vehicles, and BaT staff will be on hand with giveaways and plenty of good company. Please note that you’ll have to register to display your vehicle.
    Join us a week later for the WeatherTech Vintage Weekend festivities in downtown Elkhart Lake, Wisconsin. BaT is the Title Sponsor for this year’s Race Car Parade on Friday, July 17 and the Road America Concours d’Elegance on Saturday, July 18.
