My simple cotton cover is now 20 years old. It get washed & softened religiously every couple of months to remove imbedded dust, but it's starting to get thin. Very soft, but thin. So I think it may be time for something newer.

What are the recommendations for a CW car, stored indoors (unheated). I'm certain the cover, and my religous cleaning of it, have kept my paint perfect through the years, so price isn't an issue.

I've had good luck with California Car Cover Company.

The custom fit is excellent. I think with a modern indoor cover you won't have to deal so much with inbedded dust.

I agree, California Car Cover.
They have different materials depending on use, and prices depending on budget.
All have the same custom fit. They even ask, "one side mirror or two"?

Thanks guys - will try them out. Really need a new on since my original post - knocked over a glass off wine in it! Cover kept everything to the roof section, so no problem to the car - other than my continual licking of the roof.
