Do you have the dirtiest car in Chicago?

One Chicago car detailing shop is looking for Chicagoland’s dirtiest car. At stake (besides the title, which is almost worth it by itself) is an Extreme Car Makeover that Jim Lafeber, founder of Simon’s Shine Shop in Bucktown,promises will make the car look like new.

There’s no way a parent can’t win this thing, hands down. Cracker crumbs, juice stains, spilled mocha, poop, Kleenex and that sippie cup graveyard down under the passenger seat: It’s basically a shoo-in.

So step up, Chicago parents. If we let this go to a surly teenager with a fast-food-filled, mud-caked pickup truck, we’ll never forgive ourselves.

Enter here through Feb. 25 and you could win:
