    I have a custom fit California Car Cover "Superweave" cover for my rpu and I really like it, sheds water like a duck and fits great.

    It doesn't have a terry inner layer so it is very light and doesn't seem to scratch the paint.

    Go to their web site or get a catalog and it will tell you how to measure your car for a custom fit. If you are at a show where they have a booth, they will measure your car there. They did mine at the Goodguys Del Mar show.

    Another VOTE for California Car cover ...

    I have two ... one for the 32 Roadster and one for the 32 3W coupe.

    Cost a little more maybe but well worth it in the long run.
    I picked my 32 Roadster cover up at the California store ... years ago when I was in Los Angeles for the LA Roadster event ... Got a tour of the place too ... the owner has a BAD ... NHRA Hemi Cuda ... runs on or holds the record at the time ...

    I just went to their site and they don't even allow you to select a 32 for a pattern... 28, 29, 30 and 31 Model A, but no Deuce... You say its worth the extra money, what other companies even MAKE a cover for a 32 ford, as I can't even find another. I guess I'll have to call the tech line and see if I can get some guidance there, I aint afraid to spend money, but I want it to fit right.

    When I go to the Nationals I see other cover makers there ... But I do not remember their names ... I have the covers I need. My covers fit like a glove ... off the shelf ...

    California Car Covers has most likely made thousands of 32 Ford covers ...

    Another vote for CCC, got one for the '36 roadster that fits great. All they wanted to know was how much of a chop it had and they already had patterned so no measuring necessary.

    One comment on the no scratch thing. Regardless of the interior being lined or not, soft or not, it really comes down to how you handle it that makes the difference. If you cover with dirt on the paint, it'll scratch. If you allow poor handling or poor storage of the cover when removed and it picks up dirt, it'll scratch.

    Now, looking at how much of a psycho you are at keeping your garage, you likely won't have problems with clean.................

    It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.

    Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.
