Default Looking for hand car wash places in Queens/Nassau County, NY

Just picked up a '12 Grand Sport vert, I'm looking for some local hand car wash places. The Grand Sport tires won't fit on the conventional rail car wash....
Thanks,
Damian

The Vettes we always hand wash ourselves. As do most of us so i guess thats why there's no responses. I have a 2007 c6 and my son picked up a new 2013 Grand Sport last week.
See the link below link to a car wash I went to a couple of times with my other vehicles. Wash was hit or miss. Moving conveyor belt so no rails.
I used to own a touchless car wash and the chemicals were so harsh I wouldn't even bring my cars through.

Beverly Hills, yep. They do nice work, it was my go-to place when needing a wash and/or detail when I lived in the area.

If time and money isn't an issue.. Most detailers hand wash cars. I know Big "A" Auto Detailing in Whitestone does hand car washes

Majestic Car Wash in Hewlett on Mill Rd & W. Bwy will hand wash any car upon request. I take my GS there and they do a fine job. They clean the wheels and the barrels of the wheels, full vacuum, windows, non splatter tire dressing, etc. See Ed.
Also there is a Wash on Atlantic Ave in Oceanside that may do hand washes also. Not too sure on the Oceanside facility.

The wheels will fit, trust me, they will be a tight fit but it will work... just give it more gas to squeeze it in the track.

I remember my buddy Ed telling me about someplace in Queens, I'll give him a buzz and post results.

Congrats on the GS purchase, too bad its a Vert and you cant track it but should be nice for slow summer cruises ..

I actually got rid of my last Vette (2009) and get a CTSV coupe, the association people make with Corvette owners just got to be too much. I'm too young, still have most of my hair and I don't own a single floral print button down.

Your relatively new, but I think you've been hanging out in C6 Gen too much if you think you can pick up those gains. You said you got an automatic right ? I'm a Vette Doctors fan personally, but I've heard Chuck CoW does great work with auto cars that wont be raced.
