A IH TD 30 that we used in the bush in tassie late 1970's , had a plate riveted to firewall with S M A & numbers stamped in it .
Thiess Bros imported Cruisers as Land Rovers were in short supply. From importing the 4x4s for their own use, they started importing Tiaras and Crowns becoming the exclusive Australian Toyota agent.

Looks very much like the one my brother has,built very similar time.
His has got a bit less rust,a quick buff should sort yours out:D
Yours has the optional left wiper.
Have a look at this,will give you an idea what the original owner paid:o

is the extended/covered brake light important in some way?
or is it the funny thing under that?

the clear light below is a faded lucas 556 and isn't standard but would have been fitted in the 60's i would imagine (they were usually amber or red and generally used for blinkers)
