I actually have three I bought on eBay. One was a "breathable cover" and that's all I use during the summer. It's almost like woven paper. It's light and I washed it, although the dryer did some damage to it. Then I have a heavier insulated cover with plastic on top and a fiber "wool" liner. Last I have a light plastic waterproof cover that goes over it all and the snow slides off. After three years of exposure, I'll probably replace all three for this year.Dave Warren (Perry Mason by day, Perry Como by night)

I originally bought my Lark's cover from Studebaker Int'l. I really don't know if they still sell car covers for your car, or any Stude for that matter.

I have one that was made for a GT Hawk years ago. I've since sold the car and no longer need it. The cover is made of a heavy fabric with brushed inside. I consider it an inside cover and that was how it was used. It shows no wear or deterioration. I will be attending 2 meets down your way, Marlboro Mass and Cherry Hill NJ over the next 2 months. PM me if interested.

California Car Covers has a pattern for the Studebaker Coupes. I have two different ones from them, one for inside that is thicker and protects well for door dings, the other folds up much more compact and I use it when travelling. I had one that wore prematurely and they replaced it without question. They have a great variety of car covers to meet most needs. I recommend them.
Edit: They will also embroider your license number or name on the cover for $10 IIRC. Works great as a theft deterrent.Pat Dilling
