Outdoor Car Cover
 

Any suggestions for an outdoor car Cover for my 1929 Roadster
Need a Cover for trailering to car shows. Some just say they fix a Model A but there has to be a difference with a roadster and a sedan ?

If you just drive it, there would be no reason to cover it
Just saying

I wouldn’t put a cover on a car that’s riding on an open trailer, if that’s what you are suggesting. No matter how well it fits, you will end up with paint damage on some corners and curves of the body.

I went with an open trailer on a open cab pu. Covered it with a tarp many bungee cords, left a trail of bungee cords and top shreds for miles! go with an enclosed trailer.

Enclosed trailer is the correct answer. Otherwise only go in good weather.

I couldn't agree more ----- if you do decide to tow on an open trailer with anything at all covering the car, make sure that you're also ready to pay for a paint job. You will not be happy with the results.

I agree with California Car Covers. I've used them and they work great for temporarily keeping car outside.

I know closed trailers are quite expensive. I know guys that have used shrink wrap that are used to wrap pallets to keep cars tight.
