New Yellow Fever publicity mobile. The Yellow Submarine. 1978 Mercedes-Benz 250. Retro Ricki yellow.
Any YFers handy with cars? It needs a tune, radio aint going for some reason, could do with a small bit of rust being taken out, want to unseal the sun roof and make sure it is not leaking, and we need to get some computer images stuck on (Retro Ricki etc). Any help appreciated. Peronalised plates are on their way.

Surely with all that YF cash just sitting there we could afford something fancy like that. If volunteers are needed to drive it for promotional purposes in the future, I'd so be up for getting behind the wheel of a tricked-out YFmobile.

I was thinking we could but a big decal of the Ricki on the shirts on the bonnet and YELLOW FEVER on the sides maybe? Or Ricki on each side? Critical_Lemon2007-12-23 21:29:21

I'd be more inclined to give way if a car blasted "WHO ARE YA" at me

That being said, driving down Courtney Place with Phoenix City blasting on the radio...

Car audio, give me a yell. I've done a fair few installs so will be able to figure out if what you have works and how to get it going.

Its no longer a problem.

Yep with Wellington Phoenix below it or the proper club logo as we have it. Would look cool Feverish.

Once I tried to clear out the carburetor in my scooter. After the successful clean I put the machine back together only to have the bike literally fall to pieces at the bottom of the Ngaio gorge road thing.
 
I dont think my services would be required.
 
But cool machine! Hope to see it all blinged out on the 4th

How do you fit the Yellow Fever membership in a Mercedes?







2 in the front, 3 in the back,
