    Can anyone recommend a good car cover for a 1966 convertible corvette?

    I am having a difficult time locating a source that provides quality covers specifically for the 66 model year.

    Thanks!

    David, if it is an indoor cover you need I bought my '77 & '78 flannel lined covers from Mid America about 15 years ago and they are like new. I got my '57 flannel lined cover from Marion at MG Mitten in '65 and still great condition. Unfortunately MG Mitten is long gone. Most flannel lined I have seen are good quality. Steve

      I just purchased a flannel lined from California Car Cover. Very soft fits well . Plush weave was the type I think. Curt

        Is this for indoor or outdoor, or both? I use the Noah cover from California Car Cover for my '64 convertible, which is sometimes outside.

          Corvette America has a real nice flannel lined cover they run sales on for $200 and free shipping. Can’t beat that with a stick. I have 3 of them.

          There are labeled (also logo) for front so easy to find as covering car.

              did you buy that recently? No mirror pockets on either side? The one shown in CA ad seems to have a different Prem Flannel label, and shows mirror pockets. Maybe yours was a special version?

                Don,
                I've had this cover for about 10 years. I've probably used it half a dozen times since new. I'll have to look to see if there is a mirror pocket on the driver's side.

                  Don, I think most have two ear pockets now, I only make use of the left one. The other just hangs there. Don’t bother me but others may think differently.

                      I've had my Calif Car cover for well over a decade (1972) LOVE IT - soft, easy to install, great overall indoor cover.

                        Thank you Steven. It sounds like the flannel is recommended for those storing indoors.

                              I believe the Plush weave can be indoor or outdoor. Mine is always indoor.
