You can't ignore the two bays and ample parking space on the property. But what service is missing in CP?
Dave has lamented the need to have his truck detailed: someone to go in and clean it from top to bottom. Vacuum the interior, wipe the dash, and polish the chrome.
Take care of the details.
And people are funny about their cars. I'm in several Bronco owners groups and some lose their minds if someone breathes on their trucks wrong, let alone washes it wrong.
One bay will be dedicated to being a soft touch, done-by-hand car wash. Softest shammies, squeaky clean windows and mirrors, polish up the black walls on the tires, get the chrome sparkling.
The second bay would be dedicated to car detailing, getting every speck of dirt picked up, every goldfish cracker removed, and back to you with a new car smell.
Inside, the shop will be dedicated to extras so the customer can maintain appearances: phone accessories, cleaning supplies, even mini trash cans and air fresheners. A peg board for local mechanics to shill their businesses.
I'd even resurface the parking lot with sparkling blacktop and bright lights that make the cars gleam. I really want to resurface that blacktop.
Edited to add: I wrote this series early in 2025 as I was brainstorming ideas and concepts for the property at 3867 West River. Sometime in October, the site has a new tenant, and it appears to be back to being a garage. Best of luck to the new tenants!
