Abstract: A car wash vacuum cleaner and the method of making same is disclosed. The car wash vacuum cleaner comprises an inner shell means. A plurality of vacuum motors are secured within the inner shell means and adapted to provide a suction means therein. A monolithic concrete outer housing surrounds the inner shell means and encloses the top and bottom thereon. A plurality of door means disposed on the concrete housing provides an opening within the housing and inner shell means to both provide a vent means for the vacuum motor and a means for removing dirt particles or the like from within the inner shell. A suction tube fitting extends through the concrete housing and inner shell and is adapted to attach to a suction tube. Dirt particles or the like are drawn through the tube and tube opening into the inner shell when the motors are energized.
