Although i have been to many cruises with my charger this was the 1st show that my son and i went to. He has helped with a lot with the work that i have done to it so it was rewarding to the both of us. After baking all day in the sun we were going to leave a little early when i was told by one of the officials that i might want to stay a bit and to look at my windshield ,when i did it said show award winner so we stayed and picked up our 1st trophy for being one of the top 25 out of 300 that showed.

Here's some pictures:

That is fantastic!  Thanks for sharing and congratulations to both of you on completing & showing such a beautiful car.  May this special day last forever in the memories of both you and your Son!

Congratulations on the trophy and being able to share the good times with your son.  It is a beautiful Charger and very worthy of the recognition.

It's beautiful !

Awesome.   :cheers:     :2thumbs:  
Should get a picture of you and your son both holding the trophies together with the car.    :yesnod:  
Then print and frame it.  He might not show much interest in a framed picture with dad today but he will later.    It's a great feeling that others appreciate what you've done with your car.   :2thumbs:
