February 6, 201412 yr So there is a brat on Craig's list and the guy says that his 84 brat it a rare Baja model. Did they even make that? I've never heard of it and when I googled it nothing came up. Thanks
February 6, 201412 yr dang. I looked at it on my phone and you can see its been wrecked and the front pieced together. that guy is on something if he thinks he can get what he has into it on top of making money. I wouldn't do it. You'll probably find out he made the lift kit too xD
February 6, 201412 yr Author Ya this guy is smokin somethin funny. I wouldn't pay that much for it even if it was a Baja edition lol I was just wondering if they actually made one.
February 6, 201412 yr interesting big asss bumper guard... so what's the cyclops eye thing? sounds like a Tucker...
February 7, 201412 yr they did make a cyclops grill set up for i think 83 and 84, but its worthless with the winch blocking the whole grill
February 7, 201412 yr She looks like a normal GL Brat to me. No Baja edition to my knowledge.The headlights look from 80-82 EA81 models. The passing lamp probably came from the same car the headlights came from,which was available from 1980-82 with few minor changes in between. Is he saying "$2000 lift"?It looks like a 4" lift. Perhaps with Nissan Pathfinder wheels. It looks alittle beat for the asking price,he should at least clean the trash out before taking pics. Also notice the painted handles, and tailgate emblems on either fender.
February 7, 201412 yr That Brat looks familiar... I think John Bloom / Mudrat may have worked on it at some point back in 2005ish If that guy paid $2000 for his lift he paid too much. All his cars in the ad looks like junk to me. That Prelude (not civic) is probably worth $500-1000 tops. The brat, nowhere near $4500... maybe $1500 on a good day?
February 7, 201412 yr Whole front end (radiator support, fenders, hood, and mabe more) looks like it has been replaced with one off a 80-82 since the fenders are wrong for a 84. The drivers side fender is setup for a antenna (its missing on the brat) which means its off 80-82 because brats were only setup like that in 81-82 and the passenger side doesn't have the hole which means its been replaced too. When I went over to Ashland and Medford I went to a junkyard last summer and saw a brat the same color as this with all the parts I mentioned gone plus all the other parts stripped off completely making it a rustless shell.
February 7, 201412 yr Comes with a "wench" - not sure if that should help or hurt the sale price. Also not sure if it's legal outside of Nevada.
February 7, 201412 yr Comes with a "wench" ... A "Wench" is a girl, isn't it? Or am I lost on Translation once again? What does he mean with that? A Sticker of a Girl?
February 7, 201412 yr A "Wench" is a girl, isn't it? Or am I lost on Translation once again? What does he mean with that? A Sticker of a Girl? Hah! Yes. A common misspelling is to incorrectly spell "winch" (The motorized cable that pulls a stuck rig out of the mud/snow) as "wench" (a tavern girl for lack of a better definition.) I always find it funny when a wench is advertised as part of a vehicle sale, or is described as an upcoming modification to the car. "I'm going to put a wench on the front bumper" - all I can picture is some girl riding around on the nose of the car.

February 7, 201412 yr C'mon guys....that brat doesn't look TOO bad. Although $4500 is too high. Then again they aren't makin any more of them, and more of them go to scrap every day........and they are a collectible model. Who's to say that it shouldn't be worth that? Heck......If that one is $4500 mine is worth $12,000!!!
February 7, 201412 yr Thinking the same thing. Crowd is a little harsh! Just needs a little touching up here and there. Dumping the trash would have helped a lot! I have seen two sell for 12k plus, they were nice though.
February 8, 201412 yr ...A common misspelling is to incorrectly spell "winch" (The motorized cable that pulls a stuck rig out of the mud/snow) as "wench" (a tavern girl for lack of a better definition.)... Ooh! ... ... a Winch ... ... What does a $600 wench look like anyway? You guys are Awesome!
