I have spent countless hours and a lot of money restoring this vehicle and getting it to the point where it is now. It started out in life as a Rialta Motorhome. The Rialta is one of the most desired and sought-after motorhomes ever made; restored, a Rialta will go for over $20,000 today. One of the main attributes of the Rialta is that it has a Volkswagen drivetrain--which means parts will always be readily available, and German engineering and reliability simply can't be beat. The previous owner removed all of the old, out-dated, motorhome interior, plumbing, and wiring. Since I've had it, I recarpeted the walls, put in a new ceiling, resealed the roof (including new vents and extra supports), and installed new window seals where needed. I also stripped the floor, coated it completely with rust-proofing primer/sealer, and covered it with several layers of extremely durable, truck bed coating. I haven't finished everything, but the vehicle is at a point now where you could install your new interior--whatever and however you'd like it to be. If you're not looking to use it as a motorhome, this vehicle could certainly be used as a very roomy stand-up van or work truck just as it is now. I'm about 5'10" and I can walk around comfortably inside this vehicle with no crouching at all. It is so roomy inside that it almost seems like a studio apartment--so much bigger inside than a standard van or Eurovan (it's about 6' x 11' inside) . As big as it is on the inside, the outside of it is just about small enough to fit in a standard parking space--which is a real plus! From the outside, it is very inconspicuous--and it basically just looks like a wide, extended van and not an RV--that's one of the best aspects of this vehicle! I had planned to do this as part of the restoration. The vehicle currently DOES run and drive but I had planned to restore the engine along with everything else as well, if I was going to keep it. I really wish I could keep this vehicle, and I originally bought it with the intention of turning it back into a customized motorhome and keeping it forever, but I ran out of money and need to sell it now to pay down some bills. The windshield has a few bullseyes and cracks but the rest of the glass is in great shape. The exhaust may need a small section repaired/replaced, and the A/C will need to be looked at too--it doesn't blow very cold, especially on very hot days. The rear suspension creaks somewhat when backing out of the driveway etc., but I was told this may be normal. There are some other minor issues that may need tending to as well--but then again, that is to be expected with an 18 year old vehicle. In any event, I suggest (if you're interested in this vehicle), that you come by and check it out for yourself before bidding, but either way, happy bidding! |

Why this could be the perfect time for Apple to make a car play
Fri, Aug 31 2018While the automotive and technology worlds have been pouring billions into autonomous vehicles (AVs) and preparing to bring them to market soon as shared robo-taxis, Apple has mostly sat on the sidelines. Of course, Apple is the last company to ever make its intentions known, and the super-secret tech cult giant hasn't been totally out of the AV game based on the clues that have slipped out of its Cupertino, Calif., citadel over the past few years. Related: Apple self-driving cars are real — one was just in an accident News first broke in 2015 that it had assembled an automotive development team, in part by poaching high-profile talent from car companies, to work on a top-secret self-driving vehicle project code-named Titan. (Thank you very much, Nissan.) Apple also subsequently broke cover by making inquiries into using a Northern California AV testing facility and receiving a permit to test AVs on public roads in California. But then as the AV race started to heat up in the last few years, Apple reportedly began scaling back its car activities by downsizing team Titan. More recently, Apple's car project has shown signs of life with the hiring a high-level engineer away from Waymo and luring one Tesla's top engineers and a former employee back to Apple. It also inked a deal with Volkswagen to provide a technology platform and software to convert the automaker's new T6 Transporter vans into autonomous shuttles for employees at tech company's new campus. That is a far cry from giving rides to Wal-Mart shoppers, like Waymo is doing as part of its AV testing in Phoenix. But this could be the perfect time for Apple to enter the AV market now that ride-sharing is reaching critical mass and automakers and others are planning to deploy fleets of robo-taxis. Apple could easily establish a niche as a high-end ride-sharing service – and charge a premium – given its cult-like brand loyalty and design savvy. The growth of car subscription models could also play in Apple's favor since is already has many people hooked on paying for phones in monthly installments – and eager to upgrade when a new and better model becomes available. To achieve this, some believe Apple will fulfill co-founder and CEO Steve Job's dream of building a car. And as the world's first and only $1 trillion company it's sitting on a mountain of cash that certainly gives it the means. But other tech darlings like Tesla and Google have discovered how difficult it can be to build cars at scale.

Here are a few of our automotive guilty pleasures
Tue, Jun 23 2020It goes without saying, but I'll say it anyway. The world is full of cars, and just about as many of them are bad as are good. It's pretty easy to pick which fall into each category after giving them a thorough walkaround and, more important, driving them. But every once in a while, an automobile straddles the line somehow between good and bad — it may be hideously overpriced and therefore a marketplace failure, it may be stupid quick in a straight line but handles like a drunken noodle, or it may have an interior that looks like it was made of a mess of injection-molded Legos. Heck, maybe all three. Yet there's something special about some bad cars that actually makes them likable. The idea for this list came to me while I was browsing classified ads for cars within a few hundred miles of my house. I ran across a few oddballs and shared them with the rest of the team in our online chat room. It turns out several of us have a few automotive guilty pleasures that we're willing to admit to. We'll call a few of 'em out here. Feel free to share some of your own in the comments below. Dodge Neon SRT4 and Caliber SRT4: The Neon was a passably good and plucky little city car when it debuted for the 1995 model year. The Caliber, which replaced the aging Neon and sought to replace its friendly marketing campaign with something more sinister, was panned from the very outset for its cheap interior furnishings, but at least offered some decent utility with its hatchback shape. What the two little front-wheel-drive Dodge models have in common are their rip-roarin' SRT variants, each powered by turbocharged 2.4-liter four-cylinder engines. Known for their propensity to light up their front tires under hard acceleration, the duo were legitimately quick and fun to drive with a fantastic turbo whoosh that called to mind the early days of turbo technology. — Consumer Editor Jeremy Korzeniewski Chevrolet HHR SS: Chevy's HHR SS came out early in my automotive journalism career, and I have fond memories of the press launch (and having dinner with Bob Lutz) that included plenty of tire-smoking hard launches and demonstrations of the manual transmission's no-lift shift feature. The 260-horsepower turbocharged four-cylinder was and still is a spunky little engine that makes the retro-inspired HHR a fun little hot rod that works quite well as a fun little daily driver.
