Default Hydroblasting My New SPF

Not really! My newly purchased SPF 2608 is on the way home from Florida. When inspected, I noticed some VERY slight what I assume to be "salt water corrosion". The first thing I'm going to do is personally detail the car. I've cleaned a lot of cars, but never a Cobra. I'm tempted to remover the wheels and wash down the wheel wells and as much of the undercarriage I can get to. Is that the right thing to do? I can see the issues with hosing down the interior, but what about the other engine and drive train parts? I'm assuming (until corrected by you) that is similar to cleaning any car.

What wax or protective body polish is preferred? Someone could write a book on how to clean your Cobra! And hey, isn't that 2nd edition (printed 4 years before my car was built) owner's manual helpful? I'll have to check out the new edition!
