Re: Car covers
California Car Cover has a good rep but I don't have any first hand experience. The offer custom fit covers.

Re: Car covers
One thing you always want in a car cover is that it breaths.
So many people think a tarp is a good cover. Granted outside for a bit will keep the rain off, but it will also keep the rain in for days. It's also something to understand is concrete retains water and releases it. Had a neighbor in florida that had been traded a restored model a for some electrical work. Tried to purchase it as it just sat in his driveway. He put a tarp over it in the driveway (too much crap in the garage to put it in there, (hoarder?)). After a year I went back to see how it was going. Still wasn't driving it and it flashed rusted everywhere. Ugh. My cover was from ebay. Don't remember the actual manufacturer. Covercraft comes to mind. Very soft and air porous. Fit decent to the 38truck. |

Re: Car covers
I bought 2ea seal skin covers just the other day.
They were the economy ones and I got what I paid for I guess. They were not marked as to which cover was for which car. They fit like a big bag and do not extend down to the running boards. They are ok for covering a project vehicle but not worth the money for a done car. Would I buy another one ? No I would not. A blur plastic tarp would fit as well. My .02. Worth. Vic |

Re: Car covers
I just wish more people had heeded my warning a while back about "seal skin" covers. More pain than anyone should have !

Covers will scratch paint.

Re: Car covers
California made a cover for my AV8 roadster that fits perfectly and covers tires to the floor. An inside cover with soft non scratching inside layer. I have one for my model A Tudor that they made to cover the trunk . Super quality.

Re: Car covers
Dirt is how paint gets scratched. Keep the car clean. Keep the cover clean. No scratches.
