Default Car Covers

Good Morning Folks,
I am going to buy a car cover and am wondering if anyone has had experience with the INTRO GUARD cover they sell on the forum. Is it a pretty nice cover?

WOLF covers are also a consideration.

Between the two, if you have used both, which is the preffered cover?

TIA for any input you all may have.

The best cover I have found for the money ( for inside use) is the flannel lined one that Mid-America sells for 129.00

I got one at the Fun Fest for my C-3 and plan on getting one for the C-4 soon!

Depends on what you want it for. Inside or out? If its outside you want something durable. If its inside, it should be breathable, soft inside, mildew/water resistant. They have a bubble that you can park your car in. I think its mid america or ecklers. You turn it on and it inflates. I think it cycles out the dust too? Any one got any more info on that? Seemed pretty cool.

I have a Wolf, and would not buy one again. In the summer, when I take my car to my summer place, it sits outside w/ the cover on it. I guess it dried out or something, because when removed, it had left dust all over the car.
If the car is going to be outside, I would buy the best cover you can get for outside use.

I agree about the Noah from Wolf. It's like a big treated paper towel that gets soaking wet in anything more than a light rain and then dries out after. The Noah is a GREAT indoor cover, and I have one on my '65 Mustang 2+2.

If you want your car to stay DRY, buy a Stormproof by CoverKing.

Thanks again for all the advice. I think I am going with the Intro Guard. I will try to post when it gets here. Mu usage, by the way, will be all inside. Dust will be the big problem.
