Prof, it looks like you used composite for the floor of the cargo rack, I like that idea.
Ironically, just today pulled from the attic the old boat cover, (I don't need it anymore as I keep the boat in a 36 foot garage), the old cover has seen 7 years of use, and has been sewn many times (with dental floss). Anyhow, I needed a new cover for the champ as the old one (a cheap grill cover) tore, so I started cutting out pieces. Got out the sewing machine and am making a cover. Champion wanted $24.95 for a cover, plus almost $12 to ship it. Not going to pay that, not now, anyway. I'll post some pics when finished.
Growing up on a farm we always "made" everything we could. To this day it just about kills me to take a vehicle anywhere for repair. Buy all means, post pictures of your finished cover!

Took me long enough to get a picture, better late than never!
Added some grommets at the bottom, got 4 small snap links from HF (not installed in this picture) to hook the cover to the basket so it won't come off while driving down the road. Only remaining item is to get it flat so water doesn't pool on it. I made it a little bigger on purpose.
Fired it up yesterday to run the compressor to blow out the lines, forecast calls for mid to upper 20's this next week, so I figured it was time. Started on the 2nd pull. I also tested the new Vornado VH2 VH2 Heater on it and the heater worked great, so I had a decent load on the generator for about 45 minutes.
