Interest in Covercraft Car Cover products?
 
Everyone raves about California Car Covers, well, these are the guys that make them. I am considering becoming a dealer but there is a fairly large buy in. If interested in one of their covers, post here. If I do this, I will make it worth your money. Here is the link. www.covercraft.com

Look again, they have economy styles as well. You would be suprised how inexpensive they can be.

Do they make one for our trucks that is just cab forward (no bed, like say for a dually?) I would be VERY interested in a couple of those. Thanks, Mike

I will be buying one for a suburban in the near future. Let me know what you end up doing.

I would be interested in one for a panel as long as it was made to fit a panel/suburban, and not just a generic large size. I will let Bob be the tester.

We need a good cover for our Z but I don't know anything about them or who I will be buying from.

I'm finding that the website is very confusing and not layed out well at all. Too many choices and not layed out in order of good, better, best. When I did finally find covers for my Camaro, it didn't list any prices.

they do not sell direct do you won't find pricing. Go to their buy online page and click on one of their current dealers for pricing. Fitted covers will range from just under $100 to $500 depending on vehicle and material. Most generic covers are less than $100. I will be able to beat any advertised price by 10%-20%.

So how much would a cover for a 68 Camaro cost?

Guys,
I have/had probably seven covers from CoverCraft. Speaking from personal experience, I will never own any other brand. Whether it is their basic indoor/outdoor cover that I first bought for my truck, then used on my '69, to the superior quality of the FormFit that I currently have on my truck, they are made specific to the vehicle. I also have a CoverCraft WeatherShield on my new GMC. We have used many WeatherShields in the past with our demo/show vehicles for the company I work for. I love this particular model because it is really lightweight and stores in a small duffle bag. I have used other brands in the past, like Wolf and Budge, and was not happy with their lack of quality. At a minimum, a cover should keep the vehicle clean and dry.

Depends on the material and type of fit you require. Fairly inexpensive to expensive as posted above.

I bought a fitted "sunbrella" for my Mercedes coupe 8 years ago and other than some dirt it is still in excellent shape. I use it daily during spring and summer and about 1/2 time the rest of the year. I paid aprox. $400.00 for it but it was money well spent. I liked it so well that I got one for my Porsche a week after I bought the car this April. They are quality products and I would recommend them to anyone. Also, the fit is outstanding.

So what model would be recommended for a suburban? Mostly indoor storage, maybe an occassional summer outdoor night.

Qualities that seem practical

- decent fit including mirrors and antenna accomodations

- reasonable for 1 guy with some back and forth to install/remove himself

- Folds up somewhat compact

- washable

- reasonable priced

I checked thier listing and they did not have a custom fitted on for Suburban. I will have to call direct and get further info on it.

I wouldn't necessarily be interested in any of the car covers but they make seat covers as well which are really nice. I think....

Anyways, that's another avenue of revenue for you if you do. :lol:

Later,

Mike,
The Noah model custom fit for a Burb is 173-13273. I got that part number from Summit racing , not sure if your number would be the same or not. Hope that helps!
