I have been looking for a loose fitting custom cotton dust cover forever. Had one years ago for my 78 and 79's. I think that it came from Ecklers. I have a wolf out door cover from my C6 that fits but it is just to heavy for a " dust cover" so I am just using sheets. FWIW...

I'm having a hard time finding an INEXPENSIVE, lightweight cotton/flannel dust cover for our GS.
I already have a high quality outdoor, heavier duty CoverCraft Evolution for use on road trips, but I want a LOOSE fitting, NON STRETCH dust cover to use in the garage.
In yesteryear, I used to have a "California Car Cover" I used on StreetRods that was just like what I want, but I can't seem to find anything that sounds like that anywhere.
Anyone know of something, besides sewing some bed sheets together? It can be a "generic" type cover, not specific for the Vette.
Thanks,

120 inches wide on a 50ft roll just buy about 19 ft. About 25 dollars or so works perfect to keep the dust off in the garage. I have a couple of them . But when I sell a car they want the cover too . So I get another one. Plus you can wash it in the wash machine.

I use a gray flannel bed sheet to just cover the passenger compartment when top is down in the garage. Fast and easy and help keeps the interior dust free.

Go to the largest fabric store you can find and they have super soft cotton flannel

I know, I know, this is an old thread.... BUT ... I have same issue as OP. I am looking for a super-lightweight indoor dust cover with NO stretch, basically I want a 'drape' style cover. I had one, and it worked wonderfully for years, but it literally just fell apart from old age. Has anyone found a basic, simple drape style dust cover... anywhere? You'd think they would be popular for indoor storage, I don't understand why so hard to find.

Been looking for years...just a plain, light cotton fitted cover that I used on my C3's for years. Used to buy them at Ecklers...
