ABSTRACT:
An apparatus is provided for a unique new cover for the upper portion of a vehicle including the roof and all windshields. The cover is comprised of a top portion that lays flat along the roof of a vehicle, a front and back panel that drape over the respective windshields and two side panels that are attached to the front, back and top panels. Connected to the side panels are fastening devices that allow the cover to adjust to vehicles of many different sizes. Cords stretch from the either the front, the back, or all four edges of the side panels to attatch to the under-side of the wheel wells by means of a hook or other fastening device. A belt is attached to each corner of each side panel. Each belt moves toward the center of the vehicle through a series of loops on the side panel. The two belts on each side meet and are fastened together at approximately mid-vehicle, pulling the cover down to snugly fit the contour of a particular vehicle. The top cover is also comprised of two flaps that are connected with both the edge of the side panel and the edge of the top panel. The flaps hang into the vehicle so that once the doors are shut and locked the cover becomes secured to the car, thereby helping prevent theft.
