Should be getting my car fairly soon and as the weather is changing I will be storing it for the cold months. What king of car cover do you all use? Do you have one for winter and one that is rain proof , just looking for some guidance on the topic. Thanks

I recently purchased an all weather cover from seal skin who were having a good sale. My car's at the painters so havent' gotten a chance to use it yet.
I guess it all depends on what you plan on doing w/ the cover. if you're just keeping it in the garage, a lighter weight one would be fine, but if you want to take it on longer trips with overnight parking, then you might consider a waterproof one at the very least.
Check out Car Cover World - they make custom fitted covers for our cars with several color and weather defense options.

Wolfe makes a good quality cover. I used one of their top of the line outdoor covers for eight years on a project car. 100% waterproof, UV protected, and breathable. Elastic never lost it's stretch.
The Cobra is always stored indoors, so I have one of the lightweight ones, basically a dust cover.

I got mine from carcover.com .Their gold cover is very good and affordable. I would be concerned using any cover outside though as the covers are made to go over roll bars, over windshields and be off the ground, so the fit would be loose and be exposed to windy conditions which could be more of a problem. If I had too store a shell outside I’d use something cheap like a tarp from HF with bungees to keep it taught with on a body buck to help hold its shape. Good luck with your project
