Baja plates observed

Saw this Tacoma in the Rancho Bernardo area of San Diego last Saturday. What Baja plates do you have on your vehicle, or are interesting ones you've seen on someone else's?

The year was 1980, and California just went from 6 to 7 numbers/letters on their plates... It was my CB handle... "breaker for the Baja"... :lol:

LOL, I never heard that term from Canadians until long after I had that license plate. In 'my time' ('70's), "The Baja" was short for "The Baja 1000/ 500/ Race, Peninsula, etc."

You didnt leave me your BN name :-)

Hola McFez, I still can not get my photos online, could you please post my license plate in the Baja Plates Observed thread...Thank you

Couldn't quite get the correct spelling but you get it, you get it right? Have had this plate on three trucks since '99.

Another NOT Baja

Yes, the Subaru 4WD it was attached to stayed with my ex... when she sold the wagon years later, she gave me the plates... I have one of the blue ones that I originally got in 1980... switched to the white ones in '87 to look better on the new grey wagon.

My Avatar...had that plate on a VW "Baja" Bug I built.

Here is ours.
I think the photo is in La Paz in front of the Casa Tuscany B&B.


David K - 2-22-2013 at 07:40 PM

Is that supposed to read "Baja Roadie" ?

since (at least) 92

Seen on Shell Island!

That's a good one, David!

However, it is short for "BAJA RIDE"
The DMV gave me some hassles even after I explained it to them.
They originally thought it was an "offensive" connotation.
