I just got my first trophy this May. But yours is bigger than mine. Nice job. 
Its a great feeling isn't it?
I think the judges appreciate a restored C4. The mint C5s and C6s are a dime a dozen at the shows and they look great because they're still basically new. I always get jealous as to how easy it is to detail a C5 or C6 engine compartment, a little simple green on the plastic panels and your done! I know you owned a nice C5 but I like your C4 so much more. A C4 restored to like-new condition, now that takes a lot of money, determination, time and pride!
