I want to save wear and tear on this 10year old car; does anyone make one of those****pit covers for a 240sx so I don't have toput the top up and down 3 times a day?

Thanks,Mark

I wish I could find a better picture, but thisshould give you an idea:

Basically it is a piece of waterproof fabric that covers the seat area, generally using velcro straps to fasten it to the door handles, windshield, and trunk.

Thanks,Mark

oh, i have never seen one of those made for the 240 vert, it may be possible to have one made out of canvas but i dont know what places do cuting and sew of fabric. Im guessing any place that can re-upholster a car interior could do it.

It wouldn't be worth it if it had to be custom done, A new top would be more worth it

yeah but he doesnt want to have to deal with putting the top up and down so much, he would rather just put a cover on it. I cant imagine it being that expensive, all it is, is canvas and stiching, and measuring isnt that hard. I dunno, maybe someone else knows more on the subject.

You should just try and make something yourslef, cut some tarp or an old car cover to make it somewhat fit, and then just buy some of the velcros and mount it on.

or just get a car cover.... serves the same purpose + saves paint and prevents rust in the wing area
