Does anyone make/sell a good cover for the 73-87's?

I always purchase from California Car Covers. They have a wide variety of high quality fabrics for indoor/outdoor use and will custom make if necessary and always fit like a glove.

OK, TRUCK cover or BED Cover?????

For a truck cover, I always use California Car Cover Company...best on the market IMO.

OK, i just need a cover that will keep the moisture off the truck;  The superweave from Cal car covers is $489 which is a little too high for the budget----i got the truck for $1500.


Do you have any other recommendations?

I found mine on Ebay for about $60.00 but its not real thick just good for keeping dust off in the garage.

REVISITED:

i need a cover that will completely keep moisture/rain/snow etc. out.

Now, before anyone says, "ohhh, you need a cover that will let moisture in and breath etc,"  one of my cars is leaking and i think this is the best short-term solution.

i would like to discuss this matter in depth and/or thru good links etc.

Tarps are too inconvienent.
