Oakley’s Car Wash opened in 1995. Three years later, he christened another car wash on Neptune Avenue in Brooklyn. With steady lines of glistening vehicles leaving both places for years, Mr. Oakley is the rare athlete who starred in New York and was able to transfer his success from the locker room to the boardroom.
