Car Covers Recommendations? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

PSU SS · 05-10-2011, 08:16 PM

I want/need to get a car cover but I have no idea what to shop for. Can somebody fill me in on what to look for and/or give me a recommendation on a cover? I don't really want to buy a cheap POS, I want something to last.

Thanks in advance.

Off topic but,,,, Went to my first Penn State game last year. The opener against Youngstown I beleive.. It was an awesome experience. My fiancee is from Altoona. I fly into State College...WE ARE.............!!!!....

good luck on the car cover.

if your car sits out side dont bother, they tend to scratch & promote mold growth.

if its in side cal cover, or even from wolf.

Check out the covercraft line of car covers. I have the dust top for indoor storage and it fits/protects perfect.

I have a california car cover until I can get my buddies harley out of my garage. I paid about 320 shipped with "Camaro SS" embroidered on the front. It does a great job of keep her dry even in heavy down pours. The only downside is you have to keep an eye on the days where it is going to storm or be windy because you shouldnt leave it on.

I also went to PSU, both Altoona and main campus. My gf still goes there so Ive been up a few times this year to visit her. Ill have to keep an eye out for you next time Im up.

i went to altoona as well in 99 and 00... great time. pm me next time you plan on coming up and maybe we can grab a beer and bs about cars.

i'm starting to think about an all camaro tailgate?? we could all get stuck in the fields together.

I went to the local Canadian Tire (or I guess any automotive/parts place would work) and picked up an outdoor use cover for $80. Works well nothing but the wheels (slightly are exposed). I need it for this time of year as the pollen and since I park under a tree as the leavs come in it drops those damn 'helicopters' all over it and they actually stain the paint and are a b*tch to get off.

Never covered my old car (Civic) no chance in hell am I letting the Chevy go down that road
