    Found. Plus 35

    This is a VERY Original & very Straight Series 2 Plus 35 tray back, Thats quite a Rare Badge . Found in Agricultural Sales Yard Country NSW.

    check it out its even got the original Lucas headlights with globes in them, and original mirrors - what a gem.

    It would be for sale but no one was about to enquire.

    Your right, that is a gem! About 15yrs ago I did a full rebuild on a one owner plus 35 swb series 2, young and stupid, I sold it to 2 jackaroos who drove it from Canberra to Darwin, used it as a bull chatcher for 12months then drove it home via Perth! They rang when they returned asking if I wanted to buy it back, I stupidly said no as it didn't have a straight panel on it...15yrs on I would love to know where it is...

    Forgive my ignorance, but what does the 'Plus 35' mean? Looks like a gem though.

    Supposedly, aspects of the running gear were +35% stronger than normal.
    My old man had a well set up 2a +35 SWB, pity he sold it

    Hasnt been registered for the last 10 years. It had a concession registration, I wonder if it was a deceased estate or parked in the shed for that time.

    Hi, after having one for many years, and breaking countless rear axles - both sides, and at least three gearbox layshafts and a few other gearbox bits and pieces, if the drivetrain is 35% stronger than others, then the others must be made of plasticene, rubber bands and toilet rolls.I still have the remains of the original suffix a box in the shed, I just can't seem to get the fortitude to ditch it.... But I will never be able to inflict the pain and grief on anyone (especially myself!) and refit it to any vehicle.And this was behind a 2.25L diesel!!Andy

    I like the number plate: EJ Holden (year is a bit off) 66. A 62 would have been better.
