    Top Secret Car Collections!

    Bruce is a great guy and I'm glad he has the means to preserve these historic cars. The Porsche is a Kremer. If I'm not mistaken, I believe Bruce traded the Indianapolis Motor Speedway Museum an historic early Indy car they wanted for the museum for this car. I think the black roadster is the...

    3 batteries in 2 years, any ideas?

    What type of vehicle is it? The reason I'm asking is because my daughter has a Volvo XC-90 and was having the same problem. When she would get back to the airport after a few days out of town on business, the battery would be dead. And, it happened with every replacement battery. The dealership...

    Car Covers

    I have a '69 original paint Shelby GT-350 with the flannel lined cover on it. Works great. My 2009 GT-500 has the Covercraft Duststop cover and that is also a really good one, too. Either way, you won't go wrong with either of these. BTW, I live in Virginia and both cars are garaged.

    Looking for a good car cover

    You may try calling Covercraft directly. They stock many covers and may be able to work one up for you in a hurry. Also, if the car is going to be stored for a period of time with the battery in it, be sure and use a battery tender. Not a charger, but a battery tender. I store mine for most of...

    Looking for a good car cover

    Second the motion on Covercraft. If the car is going to stay inside, get the duststop lined version. I have a 69 Shelby of which I am the original owner and it has the original paint, and I am well please with this cover.
