    Plus 35

    Hi all

    Just saw a plus 35 for sale in Victoria on gumtree.

    I understand these are pretty rare.

    are they really that much different to the regular series 2?

    Cheers

    I have a plus 35 badge hanging in the garage. Totally unaware of it significance

    JDNSW will hopefully chime in.

    Plus 35 was a marketing activity. Basically they put in "35% stronger axles" and stuck a badge on to try and win some market share back from Landcruiser. I have no idea if the axles are any stronger, I do have one (NOS) as a spare for my IIA and it looks exactly the same as the stock axle - supposedly they sourced them from a supplier with better quality materials. Probably worth something extra to a collector but really, nothing to go nuts about. At least that's my opinion

    Cheers,

    Adam

    The badge might be worth a few dollars but not sure about the vehicle (it's just down the road from me). Looks like it's been standing idle for some time.
