It will be put away in storage during the winter months but left in the driveway all summer. Some tall trees will keep it in shade for at least part of the day but I really want to keep this thing as mint as possible. My question is how can I keep this thing in mint shape without a garage. Is a car cover a good idea or will it scratch the paint in the wind. Keeping the sun out of the interior to stop the dash from cracking and interior from fading is also vital... Thanks for your suggestions

if no garage, then a car cover is your best bet i guess. a good one is expensive - you're looking at $150-$200 for a custom fit, multi-layer, breathe-able cover.
