Default Car Covers

Just purchased a '73 convertible and want to purchase a car cover. What do you suggest and what price did you pay. Car is kept inside.

Thanks!

I just ordered a 'Softweave' from CCCC...$189+$20 for lic. plate # embroidered on and 6 bucks for a stuff sack. They're soft as a well worn t-shirt. Here in the West they're the more popular with all the classic hotrodders and customs.

I got a Wolf Noah. Soft and thick.

It's overkill for indoor use, but it's nice to have along when you're out.

Came in real handy at Carlisle last year when the big storm hit.

$150 +/- from all the usual vendors.

I just bought a Noah car cover. I looked at the Mid America Catalog and they had a matrix of which car cover will work the best for you. Indoor vs. outdoor, moisture barrier, softnesss, etc. It took the guess work out of deciding which one fit my needs.
