Wink Car cover suggestions

What's up guys. Ill make this short and sweet. I recently lost the garage privileges for the 94pala and i dont drive it winters here in connecticut as its not ideal driving conditions for a rear wheel beast like thess. It will be parked and I need suggestions i.e your personal experience or hearsay on a good car cover for rain snow ice etc. I recently had it painted so I really wanna keep it clean as possible. Thanks.

you can order one of those heavy weatherized covers, i went the cheap route because i keep my car in the garage @ home so it really didn't matter to me...

No prob Warkid.... 8-)
Easy stuff I like to do myself but I usually gotta budget the tools as well as i only got the basics, ain't even got a compressor yet. But to answer ya I found VERY good mech in Somers. 2 Guys that used to work at Clyde Chevy in Vernon and went on their own so they know what they are doing. They put 2 motors in my car already, I had "issues" and they were the only ones who could figure it out. PM me if you need info.
L8R,

P.S. one of them had a 95' BBB...

i wouldnt recommend putting a cover over it if its been painted less than six months ago. you may think your paint is dry but its not. ive painted plenty of cars that people bring back scratching their heads wondering what happened
