Jim has owned the truck since 1971. It's powered by the original Flat Head 6 231CID that delivers a whopping 95 horsepower. Jim and Resa have had many great road trips over the years in this vehicle. The truck has gone as far north as Fairbanks, Alaska, and as far south as Mazatlan, Mexico. The Arnolds recently had the truck repainted and the interior completely redone. Now it's ready for another 45 years.

#105  Wheels (LvAmVyTrAth) Rideo Bus
This 1966 Rideo bus is owned by the Livermore Amador Valley Transit Authority, operator of Wheels and Rapid bus services.

This bus was originally part of Livermore's Rideo fleet. When LAVTA assumed operation of tri valley bus services in the mid-80's, it acquired this historic treasure from the City of Livermore. But the bus was in need of major restoration. Scott Haggerty, our County Supervisor and LAVTA board member, played a major role in the Rideo bus restoration by securing federal funds to rehabilitate this piece of Livermore's history to its former glory.
