Default Best Car Cover

What's the best car cover for a 68 GTO stored inside, in a shop with not much room, with a ham handed person like myself causing mayhem? It's going to need some padding I think.

Thanks

I went with the Plushweave from California Car Cover for my 70. Seems to fit your criteria.

This question comes up at least once a week on all the many forums I am on! My answer is always the same.....If you value the finish on your car, spend the money & buy the best from California Car Covers!

As someone who spends hundreds of hours painting, wet sanding multiple times & buffing/polishing a car before I am happy, I just can't see "petering out" in the end by using something that is akin to a Harbor Fright tarp to cover it! Ebay is full of those kind of cheap covers!

I also have the "plush weave" from them on my black XLR-V & will be buying another one for the 64 GP once the house addition is done with a 3rd bay in the attached garage (two for collector cars & one for the new wife).....Happy Wife, Happy Life!

God Bless
Bill
