car cover?

[SailingFC at aol.com (SailingFC@aol.com)]

If you can't find a cover that fits well, get an oversized one and bunch it 
up either in the front or back and use a plastic zip tie(tywrap) to hold the 
excess.  This way you can "custom fit" it.  I did this on mine with a heavy 
Covercraft cover that was cut for a Toyota Supra. (when someone gives you a free 
car cover, you make do)
Good Luck.

I think I spoke to these guys a couple of years ago about getting a new Tan 
Flannel (indoor) cover made for my 16V. I have a tan flannel fitted cover 
on my car now made by MG Mitten 16+ years ago but it's getting kinda old. I 
wonder if we can get a group buy on something like this? I'm in for a new 
cover!
