Can any one suggest a good car cover for a 68 chevelle (which will be stored inside) and a wax for my truck that has to sit out in the elements because it doesn't fit in my apartment garage?

Any ideas for mice prevention?

Dryer sheets on the inside, a small dish of antifreeze under the car and you should'nt have a problem with mice

I have California Car Cover one for mine. I didn't get the super-zoot one or the bottom of the line one, mine is gray, looks kind of like a headliner perf pattern on it. Stayed outside on the car for 3 years rain, wind and snow, and on the car another 3 years inside. Never had a problem with it except where I caught it on the corner of the hood, and the cover didn't retain water and make the car get rusty.

Wax, meh. I have a nearly empty can of Mothers carnauba that I have had for 12 years. Works OK. Just bought a can of Eagle One Yellow Wax for the wife's new van. Works OK too. I think the important thing for a dail beater is to have something on it. Probably doesn't matter much what it is.

I use one of the www.calcarcover.com covers also. Actually have 3 auto and 1 Cycle cover from them..
I use meguires wax on all cars and my truck.. Depending on what your truck looks like, you may consider using anything, like turtle wax for one. If real nice, meguires is the one
