C3 Car covers
Looking for info on purchasing a good car cover. This cover is for indoors in the garage. Have seen many available with many features but would like to hear some opinions. Also, this is for 1978 pace car, should I order a 1979-1982 car cover due to spoilers??
Thanks

The problem with the Evolution/Noah type covers is that they will not last forever. I have had a couple rot internaly and the dust from the inner layer decomposing will get all over the car.
The plus side of those covers in my opinion is that they are thick. The thickness makes them more of a bear to store BUT it also protects from those occasional "bumps" from the inevitable walking past the car with a box of whatever. The thick cover will protect from those type of scratches better. Not armour but better than the thin cheapies.

I have the flannel lined cover from Back East. The car stays inside all of the time, but it seems to do a good job of keeping the dust and kid's fingerprints off the car. Their website is:/http://backeastcarcovers.com/
