1987 Z28 Vert Indoor cover

Hey Guys,

Car coming home next week after a 4 month stint at the body shop. Now I need to get a cover while she sleeps at night. Any suggestions are welcome. My garage is detached and I need something waterproof as well.
Thanks!

Looks great! What did your body shop do about the seal under the rear spoiler?

Re: 1987 Z28 Vert Indoor cover

I would not cover it until the paint cures, probably a month or more back there. It's dry to the touch so dust will just wash off, but don't wash soon or wax it for a couple of months. Talk to your body shop to get particulars for your climate.

The more expensive the cover the better it is, I just got a couple from Sealskin, they have another name too and are in NJ but the covers come from china, I would not recommend even their best for a new expensive paint job. Contact CA car covers or Bonspeed.

They added flex additive to the paint on the bumpers I hope.
