Based on the most helpful WSO content, there isn't a specific underwriting model for car wash acquisitions directly mentioned. However, WSO offers a variety of financial modeling resources that could be adapted for this purpose. For example:
If you're looking for specific benchmarks like EBITDA margins or market standards for the car wash industry, you might need to combine these tools with industry research or insights from WSO forums discussing roll-up strategies in the car wash business.

Are you taking the piss
All my car washes are used for money laundering, so sending a model would implicate you in the crime, sorry!
But seriously, just model it like any other real estate with an operating business on it. Abstract the cash flows away, it doesn't matter if it's coming from a law firm, a McDonalds or a car wash. Unless you're talking about buying the car wash itself (with or without the land), in which case you should probably ask the IB forum, they have experience modeling operating businesses.
