Recommend a Good Car Cover

Red514LX · 04-30-2001, 11:58 AM

My coupe has to sit OUTSIDE in the Michigan weather for about one year. Then it will move into a covered garage. Please recommend a quality car cover. Price isn't a concern. The weather in Michigan can be anywhere from 0-100 degrees depending on the season.

Thanks.

My dad runs a Steeda "Evolution 4" cover I believe and it is very nice, good quality and works well in both the rain and snow, although most of the time it's in the garage.

Summit carries a couple nice covers. They have a 4 layer custom fit for a 87-93GT (I know you have a LX) from covercraft for around $185, and they have a Wolf 4 layer(the one I have) for 79-93 Mustangs for $149. It fits really good, and is a nice material.

Thanks for all of the replies. I looked around and finally decided on California Car Cover's Superweave car cover. It's pricey. However, I anticipate that I won't have to buy another for a couple decades.
