Default Cool trophy

As most of you know, DK Customs had an internet bike contest on their site. I submitted a picture of the 1964 HD Servi-car my father and I restored. I didn't tell him I entered the contest. Lo and behold we won the trike class. I got the trophy and plaque today. My wife and I and my sister and brother in law took Daddy out to supper tonight and surprised him with the trophy. He was a very happy 89 yo man. Thank you DK Customs for the trophy, plaque and gift certificate. You made an old man very happy.

Congratulations! Well deserved.

That's a great picture of you and your father. He's 89? I don't believe it.



Kudos to DK Custom for going above and beyond just being a sponsor of this forum. A great company.
