A portable or moveable carport is described. The carport as described herein is able to be quickly and easily set up and taken down while still shielding a vehicle from rain, snow and sun—the primary destroyers of automotive paint, body and interiors. The structure has at least four vertical legs supporting an A-frame roof structure. The vertical legs are anchored under the vehicle's four tires with adjustable plates which can be driven onto once the structure is assembled.

1. A carport comprising: a. no more than four anchor plates, each anchor plate comprising a separate foot pad and a tire plate having a hole, wherein the foot pad inserts through the hole in the tire plate and the tire plate is rotatable around an axis formed by a vertical element;b. no more than four vertical elements connected to the four anchor plates;c. a roof structure covering substantially all of a vehicle on the four tire plates, comprising: i. two transverse elements that are approximately parallel to each other and the ground and extending beyond the four vertical elements;ii. a single peak element that is approximately parallel to the transverse elements and the ground and extending beyond the four vertical elements;iii. six connecting elements, wherein a. two of the connecting elements are peak connecting elements, each of which connects the peak element to at least one transverse element via a rafter element; andb. four of the connecting elements are transverse connecting elements, each of which connects a transverse element to a vertical element. 2. The carport of claim 1, wherein the transverse elements, the peak element, or the vertical elements are able to be disassembled into sub-sections of length no greater than six feet. 3. The carport of claim 1, wherein the transverse elements, the peak element, or the vertical elements are able to be collapsed into lengths no greater than six feet. 4. The carport of claim 1, wherein the transverse connecting elements further connect the transverse element to the rafter element. 5. The carport of claim 1, wherein the peak connecting elements each connect the peak element to the two transverse element via two rafter elements. 6. The carport of claim 1, wherein the tire plates are able to be rotated over an angle of about 135 degrees or less. 7. The carport of claim 1, wherein the roof pitch is from about 1/12 rise/run to about 18/12 rise/run. 8. The carport of claim 7, wherein the roof pitch is from about 4/12 rise/run to about 12/12 rise/run. 9. The carport of claim 1, wherein the carport further comprises a roof element comprising a sheet of fabric, plastic or combination thereof. 10. The carport of claim 9, wherein the roof element is attached to the transverse elements by wire, flexible or fixed ties, rope, zip ties, buttons, zippers, or hook and eye elements. 11. The carport of claim 1, wherein the transverse elements or vertical elements slide into or over the transverse connector elements. 12. The carport of claim 1, wherein the peak element or rafter elements slide into or over the peak connector elements. 13. The carport of claim 1, wherein the transverse connecting element comprises a sleeve element having a sleeve structure with openings for the vertical element or the transverse element. 14. The carport of claim 1, wherein the transverse connecting element comprises a sleeve element having a sleeve structure with openings for the rafter element or the peak element. 15. The carport of claim 1, wherein the connecting elements further comprise a locking mechanism. 16. The carport of claim 15, wherein the locking mechanism comprises one or more of a set screw, bolt, screw, pin, clamp, or spring-loaded “button-type” apparatus. 17. The carport of claim 1, wherein the anchor plates comprise aluminum, and the vertical elements, the transverse elements, the peak element, and the connecting elements, and the first and second sleeve elements all comprise aluminum, steel, iron, plastic, fiberglass or carbon fiber.
