I am assuming that you are expecting to cover the car to keep the rain and
other sorts of precipitation off the car. If that is your intention, I
think it is a fool's errand. Most car covers are designed to keep the sun
and dust off and are porous so that moisture goes through them.
Covering a car with a non-porous cover will trap moisture under the cover
and encourage rust.
There is no substitute for a good garage or carport to keep moisture off a
car.
But if you are really just wanting something to keep the sun off, I have
found the ones from Moss work pretty well. I have 2 of them and have been
very happy with both of them.

Subject: [Spits] Car Covers
Hello Listers:
I hope everyone had the chance to enjoy their cars today. The weather
here in the Philadelphia PA area has been very nice today.
I am currently contemplating purchasing another car cover for my Spitfire,
since the car has to "live" outside. I've had several covers for this car,
and all have fallen apart within 1 year. Has anyone has better success with
a car cover? If so, what brand did you purchase?
Thanks for your help........
