Sid Becomes First Passenger in the Hemi Cobra
HIGHLAND PARK, IL - Sid Siddalingaiah and Mark Treschl mounted the seats, put back in the steering column, tied up the battery in the trunk with bailing wire and proceeded to back out of the garage in what some ear witness say sounded like a train.
"Today, Mr. Treschl and Mr. Siddalingaiah tore through the neighborhood, leaving a trail of small white flakes, better known as freshly drilled out fiberglass shavings." one eye witness said.
Sid and Mark proceeded to get the car a little sideways before they both agreed to return to the garage and stop laughing at just how ridiculous the car is. The only obvious issue was a few drops of
oil that trickled down one of dual filters, but hey there's 8.5 more quarts in there right? Sid and Mark were later joined by Rich S., who proceeded to help out with a quick tune of the idle screw before jumping in the passenger seat for a nice tour around the block. All parties considered the evening a success and will continue to support the build until completion. All parties are available for comment.
