When I moved from California to Flagstaff, after loading my TR3 on the 
trailer I put its car cover on then wrapped the car cover & car in 
plastic.  The soft car cover was on the body and the wrap never touched 
the body except for the underside.  It seemed to work OK.  The paint was 
not new but I was concerned about flying debris and night time visitors. 
No one tried to unwrap the car to see what was underneath and nothing 
got through the wrap.  It takes 2 people & lots of wrap to cocoon a TR.

If your paint is at least a week old you should be fine.
