Re: [Chevelle-list] To Wash or Not To Wash?

[ed]

I agree.  I had a restored '67 SS ragtop and I never washed it for the 10 years I had it once I finished it, just cleaned, waxed, etc.  Of course the underside was cleaned differently every year or so...  I can say with confidence there were NO spider web swirls in the finish when I sold it.  ER

I never voluntarily put water on any of the 3 finished restored cars :-)

When I was driving my 66 every day I washed it at least twice a week if it needed it or not. But I live up a dirt road so it needed it. I did a 67 442 Olds for a guy a few years back and since it left my shop he claims it hasn't seen water since. Myself even after I get my 66 done, it will see water and a wash mitt if I deem it nescessary. And when I stop showing it and start driving it, it will probably get washed a whole lot more due to the long overdue floggings it will recieve!!
