ABSTRACT:
A cover assembly for a car comprising a flexible roll-up cover and a positioning arrangement for the cover. The positioning arrangement includes a roller on which the cover can be wound and rear and front sleeves that can be mounted on the car to extend horizontally from side to side above the car at its rear and front ends. Each sleeve slidably receives extension tubes that can be slid out laterally. The flexible cover has a central top segment which extends between the rear and front sleeves, front, back and side flap segments which hang down from the top segment, and an end segment connecting the top segment to the roller so that the entire cover can be wound on the roller. The side flap segments carry straps at their front and rear edges with VELCRO hook-and-loop fastener elements. When the side flap segments hand down the straps attach them to the front and back flap segments. When the side flap segments are raised, the straps attach them to the extension tubes to provide lateral extensions of the top segment.
