Hey all,
Anyone have a recommendation for a good humpster cover ? Its pretty much a short term [i hope] deal, moving and may have it outside in SC sun till room gets made. Sooo hard to find a house w/decent garages, size wise unless you like being totally isolated. need something that fits well and dont know diddly from brand x,y,z. Fixed mast antenna here. thanks! Henry

There is a big range on price so you might want to put down what your budget is. How long is short term? Sun and rain or just sun?

I have to store my Javelin outside so the typical breathables don't work for me. I've had 3 different mid-budget brands and they all leave the car damp and dripping under the cover in the hot, muggy, rainy climate. Water gets in the car anywhere there's compromised bodywork or seals. As a fix, I put a thin sheet of plastic over the car then the breathable over that. Things have stayed nice and dry since, but it's a pain dealing with both layers when I have to move them.
This time I'm going to go with one that's specifically waterproof and meant for outdoors..... |

http://www.covercraft.com/. They have a variety of styles, applications and prices. Had a custom fit cover made six years ago (including extra belly strap in center). High quality products, nice people, no problems. Best investment I ever made. Bruce

This is a company I've used for both the Machine and the SC/Rambler. IMHO a good compromise between cost and performance.

I use a cover from this company for indoors: http://www.calcarcover.com/
They may be more expensive than most, but the quality is high, IMO. Probably have outdoor covers as well.
