Abstract: An automobile windshield cover includes a central body portion dimensioned to substantially cover the windshield of a vehicle, and a clamping portion which extends from each end of the central body portion to be retained between the adjacent front door and frame on each side of the vehicle. A plug portion is affixed to each clamping portion to prevent the clamping portion from being drawn through the space between the door and vehicle frame when the door is closed. A plurality of rope segments are attached to the inner surface of the central body portion to space the central body portion from the windshield. The spacing between the central body portion and the windshield permits air to circulate therebetween, and minimizes contact between a potentially hot cover with the windshield when used outdoors.
