Default Corvette Covers

Hi everyone. Does anybody have any recommendations for a cover for the C6? Mainly just to keep dust off, but waterproof would be nice too. Nothing low quality but don't want to break the bank also.

We have a full line of covers by Coverking.


They all can be seen here

http://www.customcorvetteaccessories.com/carcovers.html

I like the Satin Stretch for the indoor cover and the Stormproof for the outside cover...

If yoiu have any questions, just give me a call.

Peace
Chip

Hmmm... not sure why you're posting here, but I can tell you that I have a Noah cover for my C5 and it works very well. I have had it for almost a year, I use it consistently everyday, and I have no rips or tears. I believe they go for $149.

Both Coverking and Noah make fine covers - and they have a variety of them to fit most budgets. I had a Coverking before and it worked very well.

I use a wolf cover on my car nearly all the time. My car is stored outside. The information about a cover chaffing the clear coat has not proven true in my case. I can only speak to the wolf cover but no chaffing has happened in my 2+ years of use so far.

After having a cover for all 5 Vett's over the years (yes and for this one) I still like using a couple of 100% cotton King white sheets to keep the dust off in the garage. They are easy to put on and work very well.

There you go for another 2 cents.

Default Misprint in original message

My original message said "cover for C6" -------- WOOPS, I meant to type "C5". Sorry about that.
