Default U.S. source for a decent car cover

Looking for an outdoor car cover. There are lots of companies that offer covers "guaranteed to fit your e-type Series 3" but none seem form fitted to an e-type...

What is a good source for a form fitted cover that won't take too much money away from what is needed elsewhere on the car?

Try: https://www.the-cover-store.com/vehi...nt=Car%20Model

Looks reasonably priced and other buyers gave it good reviews for a Series 3. Good luck!

It still doesn't say if it is fitted to the unique shape of the E-type...

For just a cover I can pick one up at WalMart. I want something that fits more like a glove on the car.

Two of the reviewers were all Series III owners and indicated it was a custom fit, only issue was one said it had issues with the extended rubber bumpers so was a tad tight. You could always call them and confirm.

Years ago I purchased my car cover from some company in california it fit like a glove
and had an elastic band around all four corners.
Look on the web they might still be in business.
