    car covers

    any body use a car cover, i am going to need one and i have
    lost my garage. any recomendations for a good car cover would be appreciated
    i still have a car port so it is not totally exposed but it will still be exposed to some rain etc. i really dont want to spend a fortune but some where in the 200.00 range would be fine. in looking at all of the choics out there it is hard to know which one some one has experience with and which companys have a good reputation. anyway was going to sell the car but i will try this first
    thanks everybody

    car covers on ebay all the time. From 20 bid to start to one that is supposed to fit for around 75 w/mirror pockets. Click ebay motors and then type in reatta in search.........but you knew that..........ken

    Re: car covers

    Try Crutchfield.com
    They will send you a kit that includes instruction on how to measure the car and a camera so you can send photos back and have a cover that's a perfect fit!

    No, they're not cheap. (I'm to poor to buy cheap!!)

    The cover is made from Silverguard, a durable fabric that repels water, allows vapor to breathe out, and won't scratch your pride-and-joy's paint job. Best of all, because it's tailored to your car's exact specifications, you know it'll fit perfectly!

    Call us at 1*800*955*6000 ask for "Sonny" @ ext 3265 (Please don't order from the web site.)

    Re: car covers

    I have been selling Covercraft covers for 21 years. Not for just Reattas but all sizes, shapes, and makes of cars. Covercraft has over 50,000 custom patterns and 9 different materials. Go to www.covercraft.com for all the scoop.
    Then give me a chance to quote on your car. We have two differnet patterns for Reattas, a coupe pattern and a convertible pattern, both have mirror pockets.

    Since I also have an affliction of the Corvair, I have treeked those patterns over the years, advertise in the CORSA magazine and probably sell more Corvair covers than anyone in the country.

    I sell at factory direct prices, my overhead is low, I carry no stock and do not take credit cards. With that said, you can see how I sell at prices 20-50 under places like California Covers (who get their covers from Covercraft)

    Re: car covers

    I can attest to the covers that Barney Eaton sells. They are top notch and fit like a glove. I've had mine for about 2 years through deep snows and rainy summers. Still in perfect condition.

    Re: car covers

    Because we have nine materials, there are nine prices and it will take more space than I like to use here, unless it is of interest to everyone.
    The Reatta prices start at $99.95, shipping is $8.00 for any cover. We have covers for all cars, trucks, and motorcycles.

    Send me a note for more details Barney@texas.net
