ABSTRACT:
A three-panel vehicle cover comprising two side panels each connected by full length zippers to a center panel, upper flaps of material overlaying the zippers to prevent adverse elements from penetrating through the zippers, lower flaps of material underlaying the zippers to prevent the zippers from scratching the surface of the vehicle over which it is used, and structure for temporarily supporting each side panel in a position adjacent to the center panel during deployment and removal for ease in securely zipping the two panels together. It is contemplated for the vehicle cover to be configured to the approximate contour of the vehicle on which it will be used and for zippers to have removable locking members attached thereto. Also, the vehicle cover may have a lower hem on its bottom edge, with a stretchable cord positioned therein, to help maintain the vehicle cover in a fixed position over a vehicle. Applications may include, but are not limited to, daily use as a temporary vehicle cover, extended use as a portable garage, use in protecting new vehicles during transport to dealerships for subsequent sale, and use in covering automobiles as well as sport utility vehicles.
