2022 will be a year that more and more people look to the internet to find affordable ways to enhance / fix their vehicles. If the last year has taught us anything – it has proven that no matter what you need, you can order it online. From $10 items to $10,000 full engines.
Shop Eddies saw a shift in what people were buying when it came to parts and accessories for their cars, trucks, jeeps, SUVs, and vintage cars. We have all felt the confinements that Covid 19 has created and there is nothing better for some then stepping into the garage for some self isolation and self medication.
It might be the reason Shop Eddies saw so many customers buying more DIY type products. Products, like spray paints, rust coating, car manuals, and even big, oversized items like new bumpers, hoods, and vehicle doors. Shop Eddies literally carries parts for just about every make, model and year of vehicles. We even have parts available for a 1924 Ford – check out the parts finder on the site and you can see what is all available for older car models.
There are many benefits of learning how to fix or restore your car as well. Saving money is the obvious one that comes to mind. But having a hobby or a project is good for your mental wellbeing. Even spending time researching parts, sourcing the right item, comparing options, and then pulling that trigger gives you a feeling of gratification – that reward of achieving a personal goal. Having the item arrive quickly at your front doorstep adds to the experience. So, if you have been couped up, maybe stepping into the garage is just what the Dr called for.
And when the job is complete it always helps to have a jug of PERMTX-LOCKT mechanic laundry detergent to help clean up. (Yes there is such a thing).
Happy 2022.
