Of course any claims have to be supported by pics.
Inside, outside, engine bay and under carriage if possible. I'm far from ready for this so I respectfully remove myself from contending. Let's see what you got. |

Well, I'm sure it isn't me, but I try to keep it clean for a daily driver 6-7 months of the year. Here's some pics:
Did a bunch of work back in the spring of '08 - water pump, opti, headers, shifter, brakes, hoses, etc.: http://bradprestonmusic.com/Photos/Ve ... ect_Spring2008/index.html Spun a bearing and pulled the engine last spring - good opportunity to clean up the engine bay: http://bradprestonmusic.com/Photos/En ... 20Installation/index.html Snapped a few other pics last summer: http://bradprestonmusic.com/Photos/Al ... AndNowhereToGo/index.html Here's a pic from our recent trip to the Black Hills Corvette Classic - I thought the old girl didn't look too bad:  Put on some new dancin' shoes today: http://bradprestonmusic.com/Photos/CooperZeon2XS/index.html |

Looks good! I did not know that you did all that engine work. Must have been before I signed on.

Very nice, Brad.
We all know it's not my car! But I vote for Mick's (mseven) car. I've only ever seen pictures but that thing is so clean you could eat off of it. Matthew |

I certainly don't claim that my daily driver is the cleanest but, I do keep it clean. I washed the underside of the hood, frame rails beside the engine, etc. this month. I wash it at least 2 times a week. I like clean cars, hell, I wash my Silverado once a week. And there's never anything laying around in the interior (truck too). Just the way I like it.

I have one of the cleanest! But nobody can have the cleanest because you can only make them so clean... This is 14.1 mp HD photos so i cant hide anything this is as clean as it gets lol.
    LOL sorry for big pics but eh anybody can take a small pic at a distance and say it's clean! This is up close so i cant hide anything. |

My dad got it new i got it in 2007 from him. Yep this one is getting the build. its been sitting about a month due to busted wheel barrings but i got the hubs just need to change them out. This car is very cheap to keep taxes+insurance i was going to get a c5 Z06 but meh the cost to keep it would be higher so i choose to build this one. |

I put on 7000 mi. since Jan. for a total of 59,000.
Plenty of time to spend with it now being retired. Pianoguy, you're too modest. Attach file: P1010004.JPG (133.55 KB) P1010039.JPG (134.62 KB) P1010001.JPG (116.09 KB) P1010l001.JPG (135.14 KB) |

If C3s count I nominate Curt's 1974. I'll post pics to prove it later when I get my desktop warmed up.

All these cars are damn near clean enough to heat a hot dog on the manifold.
