Patrick Ammons is a Car Guy's Car Guy who goes out if his way to promote the Positive side of car culture and share his enthusiasm. His Dodge Charger is truly an amazing one of a kind build! He shows it and competes in car shows and also shares great pics on his Facebook page including all the other cars he sees at the shows!!

I asked Patrick for a few words about his car and true to form he speaks about uniting car enthusiasts. It is no wonder he is a Top Rising Creator on Facebook. Listen to what he has to say and get to a car show in person or on his personal page. It is a great pleasure to share with you the First Dodge Charger Featured on ChargeroftheDay.com!!!

Patrick Ammons: "Something that I want others to know is that progress takes time. If you put in the hard work and time to better yourself you are able to accomplish anything you put your mind to. In the car community there are going to be people that try to put you down. They are going to look down on what you are doing and the moves that you are making. People need to know to ignore those people and continue what you are doing. The hard work and dedication will pay off in the end. Those same people that are putting you down will never be able to accomplish what you are doing. It's easy to get caught up on what people will say about you but remember to always press forward."

It is a great pleasure to share with you the Featured Challenger of the Day: The Beest & Nita Wade!!! We love sharing smiles at ChallengeroftheDay.com and The Beest and Nita are both Smile Machines!!! Please Follow Nita at the links below the photos and Smile!!!

I bought The Beest 3.5 years ago. I had just purchased a beautiful brand new (but boring) Rav4, and for some reason started looking around for something a little more exciting. I'm a 63-year-old female, and fast cars, modified cars, racing is in my blood (genetically) but unlike my brother (who had a Viper and multiple Mopars his whole life), I never fully embraced it. Oh, I always modified my cars a bit, added the sports package in both brand-new Toyotas I bought, but that's about it. I was always sensible. Lol. When my brother heard I was looking for something, he immediately started hunting for a yellow Challenger because he knew I had a thing for yellow cars, and HE was a Mopar fanatic. I didn't really care one way or the other...Until I saw that car on the dealership website, and my whole life changed.

Since I bought that car, it went from being 'a beast' to him being The Beest. He became a living thing, and I started making little changes, which turned into huge changes. My vision for what The Beest would become has pretty much stayed consistent. I wanted him to be a car that, when he drove by you, you snapped your head and did a double take. If he pulled into a parking lot, folks walking by would stop and stare. If he went to a car show, people took notice. He's done all these things and so much more. The feeling I get when other car owners come over and start noticing all the little details, when they drool over how he sounds, gushing over this car I've poured my heart and soul into, is unbelievably rewarding. And the kids! To them this car is an immediate magnet. No, it's not a Camaro, but many still say 'Bumblebee' And gravitate to it... Wanting to touch it and get inside. And I let them. After all, it's still 'just a car'. Fingerprints wipe off, and if I can make their day by letting them sit in my driver seat? That car show was successful, and My day is complete. There's nothing better.

It takes a positive mindset and a daily consistency to be Charger of the Day. Persistently creating and outputting a motivating feeling comes naturally to those who seek to embrace this road. Once you are driven to help others it becomes your own motivation and an abundant source of energy. Don't be fooled by his angry visage. Bryan Donaldson is a really good guy who would go out of his way to help you or someone else he never met! It is a great pleasure to introduce Bryan and Angry Grape Ape!!!

For as long as I could remember I have always wanted a muscle car. Ford Mustang, Chevy Corvette, and of course the Dodge Charger. Because of some very difficult situations, I was in a wreck in 2012 and messed my back up pretty bad, and was receiving disability from the VA for injuries that occurred in the military. I was finally blessed with the opportunity to purchase one of my dream cars. It has been a blast and the community of Dodge owners is beyond amazing.

I came from the Jeep scene and that in itself is a whole culture. I am an advocate for Veterans when it come to Vet suicide, I am a suicide survivor, and I am a ministry leader for a Christ Centered 12 step recovery program called Celebrate Recovery. I am working towards a bachelor degree in Christian Ministries with the goal of becoming a pastor. I’m not famous or anything but because of the Grace of God and what he has done in my life I’m able to help others to find healing and hope in a hopeless world. I love to encourage others and help them with what I’ve been through in my life. I would have decals all over my car now to bring awareness but my wife won’t let me. She says the car is way more sexy without them.

This Awesome Cuda Tribute by Ruby Guerrero Workman is definitely a labor of love! Dedicated to her mom, Maria Romero Guerrero, it is a great modern rendition of the original Cuda. Now a word from the proud owner:

“This is my beautiful beast Rubyred. When I was a kid, my mom had a red ’71 Cuda and it’s what started my obsession with muscle cars! When my mom became ill with Cancer, I looked around for a Cuda I could restore but my budget wasn't great. I bought Rubyred and decided to do a total conversion Cuda kit for my mom. She passed away four months after I bought her. So it became a project in memory of her. I know she’s grinning ear to ear even though she never saw it completed. I'm still doing things to her but I love her to pieces. Even if don't win I hope people appreciate my love of muscle cars and the labor of love I took on!”

Ruby has a contagious passion for Challengers and is also the creator of the Facebook Group Dodge Challenger Owners & proud of it! ;). Check out the group and click here to connect with Ruby on Facebook and Instagram too!

There are about 300 billion stars in the Milky Way Galaxy and 4000 Solar Planetary Systems. Some stars shine brighter than others and Katsuya Tamaki's photographs are really out of this world. It is with Great Joy that I present these Far Out Challengers!!!

"I live in Nagano Prefecture, Japan, and there are many mountains around. So I'm doing some tuning so that I can drive comfortably on the mountain pass. In Japan, this car has been featured in magazines many times. I also have an old 1973 Challenger. Also ram van and Grand Cherokee are unified in blue".

My friends Joey, Barry and I would sit at the bus stop and watch the cars pass by. We lived in The Bronx, home to the busiest street in the country, and in the late seventies we saw every kind of muscle car and every car ever made for that matter. Dodges were always among our favorites and as ten year olds we already knew who Mr.Norm was!!!

I was so excited to have the chance to interview Norm Jr., aka Lee Kraus, and talk about his Tribute Challenger for his legendary dad Mr. Norm. We had a great conversation and he shared his perspective about what it was like being a kid at the Most Famous Dodge Dealership in the world. He shared a lot more than that! We really hit it off and spoke for over an hour about everything from classic muscle cars to the current state of affairs for the car industry. I was looking for a little background to drive this story and drove away with a great friend. Thank you very much Lee (aka Norm Jr) for taking that ride with me!!!

It is with great pleasure that I present Mr Norm’s son Lee Kraus, aka Norm Jr., and his Amazing Tribute Challenger!!!

1) Growing up with your dad, did you ever feel like a kid inside a candy store?

This sinisiter Challenger is an awesome build that was first contemplated back in the early seventies! Check out John Cimino's Scat Pack Shaker Story:

Just love the journey with this car. I grew up in Newark NJ and a friend of mine had a 1973 Challenger with a 318 and 3 speed. As a teenager we cruised in that car until the wheels fell off. I swore that one day I would own a Challenger of my own. Well that day came and I bought this car as a Basic Black Scat Pack and just kept adding to it to make it my own. All red carbon fiber accents. Painted the SHAKER in Redline Pearlcoat. All engine accents from American Brother Designs. Oil Catch can from Billet Technologies. Borla Atak Exhaust. Marquee Red/Black Rims. 275/40/20 Cooper Tires. Barton Shifter. Custom Splitter from Downforce Solutions. Tiger Stripe Taillights from Luxe Auto and the list goes on. This is my daily driver with 84,000 miles on it. If you have something you enjoy you should use it! I still look back to admire it every time I park.
