When Bill Milstead decided to open a carwash, Chuck Howard and HOWCO provided guidance each step of the way. From site analysis, building layout and design, income and expense projections and equipment selection HOWCO was there with experience and advice.

Bill opened his first carwash in April of 1990 in Winston Salem and has never looked back except to remember his first summer working in the hot sun vacuuming and drying cars. A few thoughts of "what have I done" quickly disappeared as the business grew and prospered following the business model offered by HOWCO and Autobell. Bill's first location in Winston Salem was so successful he opened another wash in Mount Airy, North Carolina and a 3rd location in Hickory, North Carolina. -- William J. Milstead, owner of Classic Touch AutoWash, Inc.
