I'm hoping for some advice. I have been tasked with "wrapping" (their words, not mine) a vehicle for transport on a flatbed truck.

This vehicle is an SUV damaged during the events of 9-11 in NYC. Our goal is to mainly protect it from the elements during transport. I have been told that it won't be possible to cover the vehicle with a tarp, supposedly because the wind will tear right through it.

The material we're thinking of using for this project is commercially available shrink-wrap. Possibly with some moving blankets underneath.

Are there any other possibilities?
