Default 1970 Car Cover

Hello Corvette Land ! ! !

I am needing to replace the car cover that came with my 1970 when I bought it. The original cover was for a 74 (stamped on the nose of the cover) and never really fit tight. As you can see in my profile picture, it sits in a carport that is exposed to cars on either side, a wall with a dryer vent behind it and the front gets occasional rain (not much...I am in Texas).

Thoughts on a cover that will help with that and fit snug enough to not blow off in the wind?

Any good quality, breatheable cover will work. Flannel lined is nice and helps protect paint.

You can get one that has a cable & lock that goes under the car so it won't blow off also
