new to group and rialta world

[bsfritz]

hi, just joined this group and forum...I purchased a 1996 Rialta FD (29k miles) last december (2014). Flew out to Indiana (from Colorado) and drove it back (2.5 day roadtrip)...it ran great...have had it parked for the winter and have gutted it (carpet, chairs, microwave, valance,etc) and am rebuilding the inside...fixed the roof, put on a new skylight, amin process of installing a wood / laminate floor...have lots of upgrades and modifications in mind (transmission cooler, new shocks, solar)...have been living in it since december...am attempting to document (written and photos) all modifications and will post them when complete...Brian
