Definitely: California Car Cover
Model: NOAH
1. Guranteed and warranty.
2. The Noah, it is soft and thick AND water repellent. Then go to Harbor freight and purchase a tarp if you need to store outside.
I bougfht a NOAH cover for my 70 Superbee. I live in a very very windy area. High winds: 40 to 50 (Mojave Desert)
My cover started to wear thin at rear quaters/Pillar line. Vinyl roof to body. I called Calif Car Cover, they told me to send in a "tab" on the cover, I did and they replaced it for free. It was a few years old! I asked them if they wanted me to send the old cover in (it was still good) They said: No, keep it.
Summary: California Car Cover company is #1 in my book.
A true statement

I'm using a Covercraft Dustop car cover that I've had for about a year and I'm happy with it. The material is some kind of Kimberly-Clark synthetic and it's very soft and non-abrasive. It's strictly an indoor cover so if you think that you might ever need to use it outside, go with a different type cover. They are custom made for your car and mine fits perfectly. I think it was about $250. Hope this helps.

California car cover. The DuStop should meet your needs.

$49 "eBay special" cover here, works great for winter storage.

In addition to using a car cover on my '65, I have an inexpensive "box fan" continuously circulating the air under the car.

I've been using a California Cover. Nice, heavy duty cover. Excellent Fit. Happy so far (several years)

I don't use one...their is a "need to breathe"...also, why make a little tent for mice and
other little creatures to dwell in? Dust it and move it when you can...
I only use one when other cars are being "worked" on in the same garage.

I hear you about the tent for mice. I have had a lot of success (or luck) by having open tupperware bowls containing mothballs located in the interior, trunk, and under the hood. I will tell you though, my wife doesn't like the smell in the car after I remove the containers before taking the car out. I find, that if anything, it smells clean.
I also keep decon in the corners of my garages. No problems at all in either of my old Mopars or my dually. Have a found mouse nest in the air cleaner box of my wife's car though.
