Can anyone give me the name of a good brand of car cover to cover a 66 coupe I have in my driveway?It will see all types of Canadian weather for a while it should be breathable but also waterproof.I also have no shade so sun will be a factor in the summer.Thanks

I also got the top of the line cover from NPD and have been very happy with it.

I would be very careful about leaving those suppossed weather proof covers on for a period of time.I have seen two paint jobs damaged from that. They developed tiny bubbles on their horzional surfaces. They were nice paint jobs, one was a Shelby conv.I dont know the time frame so keep an eye it.

Yup, if I have to leave a car under a cover and it rains, I always make sure to take the cover off the next time the sun comes out. I don't think any cover can provide good long-term protection if you expect to just put it on and leave it.
