What about it do you want custom? Do you want C3 flags on it or just want it to fit a C3?

SealSkin Covers makes a really nice cover with a lifetime warranty. I have 2 of them and I love these covers. They are water-proof and have a soft inner liner to protect your finish.

They might seem kind of expensive but they do come with a lifetime warranty and it works. My first SealSkin Cover lasted about 7 years before wearing out and I called the manufacturer and for the price of the shipping I was sent a replacement cover. They sent me a replacement and I am a happy customer now.

Cheap covers are for the birds, this SealSkin cover is light years better than the cheap ones. If they seem expensive remember that this is for a "Lifetime Warranty Cover" and you will be getting several of them over the years.

The folks at SealSkin have a top quality cover for your 1977 Corvette Coupe and it is is $180 which seems like a lot. The cover is such a high quality that I have had them last 5+ years in my carport. For $180 you will get a cover that will last a while longer than the less expensive covers and protect your Corvette's paint and body.

The covers come with a storage bag and even a lock and cable to secure your cover in place. They are QUALITY and I strongly support them....

I buy custom car covers for all my vehicles including my daily drivers.
They are made to fit snug, come in many different materials to protect your vehicle from the elements, and because they are custom fit for a particular vehicle they won’t blow off in a breeze.
Contact California Car Covers in Semi Valley California.
I’ve been buying covers from them since 1991.
