A modular car cover having a cab covering portion and a skirt. The skirt is attachable to the cab portion to extend the latter to become a full car cover. The skirt may be formed as one part, or may comprise forward and rear parts. The skirt is gathered at the bottom by an elastic band or, in other embodiments, by a drawstring which has a hook and ring for tightness adjustment. In another embodiment, the drawstring terminates in chains, which are padlocked together for security. The cab covering portion is provided as a single panel, cruciform piece, with four sections draping over the windshield, two sides, and rear window. In alternative embodiments, the cruciform piece is abbreviated, and separate depending panels are attached thereto. These depending panels overlie one another, so that the cab covering portion better conforms to the vehicle, and adjusts to cover the corners of the cab, which are somewhat exposed by the cruciform embodiment. The cab covering portion connects to the skirt by hook and loop fastener, and has individual pouches for covering the exterior mirrors of an automobile. The multi-part car cover is more easily stored and installed and offers the option of protecting the cab from solar heating by employing only the cab covering portion, as well as protecting the entire vehicle by employing the skirt also.
