Default Best car cover

What is the best car cover for a classic roadster, it will be parked inside a climate controlled area, what is best to keep the dust from going through, it will not be used outside,

Tan Flannel. Cotton on the inside (Super soft) and of course Flannel on the outside, thick enough if you bump up against it, it will not do any damage, within reason Had one for my Classic Roadster, I did order it for a 61 Vette (One size bigger), it fit over the whole car, even down to bottom of the tires. They are not cheap; I think I paid around $250 for mine, but well worth the price considering how much my paint job cost. Cheers Tom. https://www.covercraft.com/us/en/pro...r-cover.C-CCFL

I have the California Car Covers "Plushweave".
Cotton with flannel inside layer. Good ding protection.
CC Covers makes them specifically for Cobras and
the selection menu will ask the following:
289
427
Single roll bar
Double roll bar
No roll bar


Check out their prepackaged clear plastic cover
for emergency rain gear. $15 clear throw away
that can also be used in garage as a dust cover.
Select small size (CCCS). I always have one of
these in the trunk. 8"x8"x3" when in carry bag.

Default Helpful info, thanks

Good info on covers. So I should be prepared to spend some $$ on a good cover.

The OP asked about an indoor cover for a Classic Roadster? Anything specific to these covers that makes them ideal for a Classic Roadster or are they suited for all / most makes of Cobras? Based on the different makes represented in this thread (Unique, Pacific, Kirkham), I am thinking not specific to Classic but thought I would ask.

And great tip about the disposable cover.

But should I be budgeting to spend some $$ on both an indoor cover as well as an outdoor cover, or have some of you had luck with a multi-purpose, indoor / outdoor cover?
