We are looking at sun shade canopies, and the only one I can find that retracts into a small enough package to fit my '33 trunk is the Bravo Ultra Compact Canopy which is 38" long. Does anyone have experience with this cover, or know of a better one if it is not good quality? http://www.amazon.com/Bravo-Sports-C.../dp/B003CRIIQQ
a friend of mine has a couple of folding chairs with canopies----they fit in the trunk of his cobra
finding one small enuff to fit in some of the Classics is quite the challenge - - - - - sounds like good enuff quality to me, if you take care of it and don't put it up wet or anything like that - - - just remember "If is doesn't fit, you must acquit!":LOL:
Don`t forget to tie it down when up, saw one take off at Tahoe one year, went over one row of cars, luckily it landed without hitting anyone or their cars,,,, :eek:
Yep, I've seen some weights that fit at the bottom of the legs, look like the plastic barbell weights with a special center; and saw one guy that had some type of bladders that he filled with water and tied to the structure. They will definitely take off in the wind.Quote:

Be really careful with tie downs in a public area. I tripped over one on a gloomy day at York a few years ago and broke a bone in my foot, one in my hand and gouged up my face. I used to ski a lot, but never fell that hard. The rest of the weekend - went great but a lot more slowly:CRY:
