Car Cover?


I need a car cover for storage this winter for the Cobra; but I don't want to end up spending $250-$400 for a ridiculously over priced car cover. That seems absurd to me. Any recommendations on one that's a reasonable/cheap price?

It's not overpriced, especially on a black car. Spend the dough and get you a good california cover, wolfe also makes some nice ones. A cover is one thing I would not cheap on, especially if its going to be on the car for a long period of time.

True. I found a California Car Cover for $199 and it's meant for indoors and outdoors...I dunno; it's touch ya know...because I'll only use the cover for a certain time of year and that's it. That's the problem I'm having with it

But I do see your point Ryan.

they added it as a part of the deal while i was haggling the price on the gt500. they even gave me a nice framed picture of a gt500 with carroll shelby in the background with his autograph. 47-100 made.
