First Car wash in 5 years

[Spilk188]

Tomorrow I'm going to wake up and give my Maxima it's first car wash in about 5 years.

It's an interesting story about this car, about 5 years ago the transmission went out on that car. So we parked it behind the garage of our old house. We had a dumpster just beyond it (didnt get garbage service in our area). And for a year and a half we never emptied this dumpster, so the car got burried under a mountain of garbage. Then one day last summer we took about three days and completely got rid of it all.

So the car and a nice layer of filth on it. Tommorow I'm going to wash it, wax it, and then take some pictures of it.

Once I take the pictures I'll post em here.

Oh man, how could you do that to a Maxima?!?!?! But good luck washing it. I bet it will take you a while to get it really clean....

[InstantRice]

how could he do that to any car?

[Anand]

imagine what's been going on in the engine bay and the engine...

I'm sure a family of rats has been living int here...

[InstantRice]

sorry the correct answer was a family of possums.

[UncleBen]

Probably possums and rats both.

Man, I'm tired.

I washed it, scrubbed it, then used some rubbing compound on the hood to remove the junk on it.

Then I used goo gone on the windows because my mom was a heavy smoker so there is a thick layer of gunk inside it. ive got the driver window and the back left window done. Then I used goo gone on the hood and front windshield.

Its amazing how clean the windows look now compared to the passenger side.

I also wanted to ask, what are the statsictics on this car1/4 mile0-60HP

Will keep you posted on my progress.

Thanks-Spilk
