Re: A decent, but fairly inexpensive outdoor car cover?

[Bill Parker <hemirr@xxxxxxxxx>]

I had to store one of my cars outside for 7 years. My wife actually bought me a cover at pep boys for 139.00. Universal fit but it worked perfectly and in fact has now been working perfectly on my Challenger project for 5 years and counting.  Makes it a heck of a deal. It said "3 layers" on the box but I don't recall brand.

I need one mostly for inside  dust protection and dings- scratches, and occasional short term outdoor use  Can a good one be obtained for $75-$150? ................MO
