    I’m lookin for recommendations on where to buy a good car cover for a 34 ford roadster. I would like one with the ford logo embroidered on it also.

    If I not mistaken California Car Covers will custom monogram a cover. If you park outside, I would have PT Cruiser printed on the cover. I just buy covers that match the color of the car, so I know which one goes to what vehicle.

    I have a friend that got a cover with glow in the dark beading and a laser light to beam the corvette flags on the wall over the car. Whatever floats yer boat.

    Cover Craft, they are the manufacturer, CCC is a retailer that sources their products from Cover Craft.

    I bought a cover from cover craft to fit our '54 Ford and am a dissatisfied customer.

    It is obviously a universal cover, I was told they are custom made to fit my car, it doesn't fit the wagon and hangs off the car like it was made to fit a much bigger car, buy the California Car Cover, you will receive what you order.

    I will never recommend the cover craft. HRP

    California Car Covers are the only ones that I will have. They fit like a glove and if the vehicle sits out in the weather or in a garage they have the right material for you!

    CCC for me .I highly recommend them .I have 3 now on 3 totally different shape and size vehicles and they fit and are soft.You can find cheaper ones but you got to ask yourself .How important is your vehicle to you?

    My former rod came with a CCC. It was nice and fit well.
    My current rod did not arrive with a cover. I didn't see spending $$$ for a CCC. I bought a Budge generic cover that was sized for a vehicle of the size of my rod. I find it quite adequate to protect the car over the winter, when it is tucked away for several months.
    The rest of the year the cover is stored in the ba*****t.

    I don't think I'd advertise what was under it.

    I found it thrifty to buy a cover made for a late model imported SUV that was the same shape and approximate size as my chopped 28 sedan. They cost a lot less than the hot rod ones and come in fabrics good, soft or whatever you prefer.

    I'm kinda in the market for a cover for my Deuce Roadster. It's been years since I looked at California Car Covers. They make a nice cover. I checked their web site the other day and DAMN...the prices have gone through roof. (Just like everything else). I guess I'll p*** for now, 'wish I'd picked up one 5-6 years ago.
