Are Steve and Sven the same person?

To help out KB58, who just can't seem to fathom that in a city of 3.5 Million People people, there might actually be 2 white adult males interested in building lightweight cars; I pose the Poll question.

Before you vote, first have a close look at the suspects:

Steve - website http://www.grabercars.com
avatar - a man out standing in his field
avatar - a man out standing in his field


Sven - website http://www.toyotus.com/gallery/


Thanks for your assistance!

Look at the hair lines.
Steve's car is obviously faster than Sven's.





Tell them about the bent treacle edges!

Such perfect teeth too! LOL

BTW - that photo of me was taken at the end of the first day that I dismantled the donor MR2 for La Bala. It was 118f (47c) in the shade. You can see the car parts in the background.

I think Steve & Sven or Ste-ven? are connected at the middle like cat-dog.



Notice the way we don't get to see a picture of both ends of this hideously gone wrong scientific experiment at once.

Whoa dude...chill pill needed methinks.....

I agree it is bordering on silly, but it's just a bit of fun...it doesn't detract in any way from the useful stuff on here...

Do what others do just skip the threads that aren't of interest and focus on what's revelevant...bit of an over-reaction to avoid the site totally because of it.

Just IMO of course.

ETA. This post now looks rather silly because what I replied to (a post by Tralfaz) has now gone.....oh well...

That is a bit strange how Trafalz post vanished. Understandable though, since it was slightly over the top. I think a lot of us are feeling pressure from many places and it's easy to lose patience in things that don't matter as much.

Alan I have to agree. On my part it's more just a bit of fun being had because Kurt brings up the idea of Sven and I being the same person. I really didn't do it out of malice at all and I hope that people don't feel the need to rail on because of it.

If someone is offended, I am happy to remove the post completely.

Whatever Tralfaz says (and I didn't get the chance to read it) I think the thread is a good one

The mid-engine forum is the nutty edge to a fruit cake forum, there's probably only slightly more of use than the nut case 3 wheeler guys so we all need to stick together!

Where's Mr Whippy when you need him!

Who's going to call the Arizona Republic and get them to investigate this scam anyway?

A technical tip: For less obtrusiveness talk to yourself inside your head, not out loud.

Read this post quick it will self delete in 10 minutes!
