Admittedly I've only been using this case for a few months so prolonged exposure to the elements may prompt an updated review. I originally bought this as a cheap temporary cover for my '57 Thunderbird while it was undergoing a cosmetic update including new paint. That shell was hanging there in less than ideal conditions; T-Bird bumpers and other detachable parts are currently absent from the car, leaving some sharp edges and corners. The cover is not torn or stretched even in windy weather. This car cover has no lining; after all, it is a cheap single coat. But so far it's doing its job well!
