Brad,
One thing to look for is a cover that is not "waterproof", but water
resistant. The reason being that a waterproof cover does not breathe and will
create more problems than it solves. I store my cars indoors but use a Covercraft
"Noah" model when necessary. They do breathe and prevent condensation
(better than most) from forming. Covercraft does not make the fabric, rather they
just stitch it and the fabric is called "Block It". It will run you about
$160.
I would think, and do not have direct experience with it, that you may be
better off workihng this out so that the cover does not rest on the car, rather
air is allowed to circulate around it. What first comes to mind is a
technique for building a spray booth out of PVC pipe and PVC fittings and covering
with sheet plastic securing with duct tape. That way you can be waterproof,
have air circulation, and see what is going on under there without removing
the cover. I would think you can get this done for less than $160.
Good luck
