The Rialta was a true Class B motorhome on the Eurovan chassis--a really bad
idea from the get-go.  The drive train just isn't up to this kind of load.
Sad to see one bashed and picked over like this though, and $3500 is
ridiculous.  This is a $500 junkyard vehicle.  Maybe the seats are useable .

Hi all.

Seems an uncommon thing. Interior shot shows a real mess but maybe a good
deal for right price? If ad accurate and true, drive it away?

Not mine, don't know seller, saw it posted over on thesamba.com

Neil.  (who though tempted with the idea of a Rialta, stands 1 or 2"
too tall for ownership!)
