anti Baja at all either. Just looks like one of their euro/raised decks from the early/mid '90's.
Lot's of the Checkmate die hards figured once the company sold to Doug Smith (previous owner of Baja) that'd be only a matter of time until he started building Baja's w/Checkmate stickers on them.
I know C.mate was stuck in the 70's but i would have liked to have seen them meet 1/2 way.
Looks like they pressurized the cabin before the deck cured
