Hi!

[Sven7]

Hi, I'm from Stillwater, MN but am currently attending the College for Creative Studies in Detroit, MI for Transportation Design (drawing cars, not engineering). I enjoy cars, cycling, photography, outdoors etc.

I am more into Euro cars (and on several forums), but love my F100 too.

These are my cars:

"Boo Radley"
65 Ford F100
352, 3 on the tree, 32K miles

I got him from my grandpa a few years ago, and love it!

"Freja"
1981 VW Rabbit Convertible
1.7L, 5 spd, 175K miles

I bought her from my uncle a year ago and she is my daily! (I love mk1 Golfs)

here she is trying on some new equipment

edit: here are my plans for Freja:

My bike:

1979 Miyata Americana
10 spd, and modified!

reflectors are now gone!

my pictures can be found at http://www.flickr.com/photos/sven_designs/

Well I guess this is an official hello!

As a mk1 owner, I am obligated to photograph my car next to any ridiculously oversized truck, no offense to anyone. I know I'm walking on thin water
here. Most Euro owners look down upon big 4x4's (metaphorically) and I am led to believe most 4x4 owners disregard 80's VWs, haha.

So I hereby apologize for any present or future culture clash!
