Hello,
 
I recently purchased another 91'  It is about two hours away, and I live in northern New York where there is about 4' of snow on the ground right now.  I plan on moving it home on my equipment trailer with a debris shield on the front.  I would also like to move it with the car cover on it cinched down.  Would any flapping of the cover going down the highway do anything to the finish on the car?
 
Thanks in advance.

Thats going to depend on your cover, if it has any grommets, or eyelets you will want to be sure and secure those down firm with straps. Check the edges of your cover and see what kind og material is there (mine is a soft base chamis material with an elastic band sewn in to hold it under the car. All of the edges to my cover go all the way under the car you will want to check that too. Congratulations on the new addition, and dont forget to post some pics as soon as you can.

congrats on the car. it might be easier to leave the cover off when you are trailering it and clean the car when you get home. my thought would be the that the underside of car wouldn't get that bad and it would just be on the outside. i have heard of covers doing a lot of damagejust sitting in a driveway. dont know if i would take a chance wit the wind being forced on it.
