It still is, just needs some work.
The serial number is 82 2031. (admittedly the 1 does look like an L...! ) I would have expected to see a letter code in there, but between the first two digits and the sequence after. There's that, and the L letter code would be a Skylark guitar, which this certainly isn't. The absence of a letter usually indicates a Series instrument, which this isn't. It looks from these pictures to be an 8-string Exploiter, with Distillate controls. We'll just have to wait for Mica to pull the card on it to see what the specifics were at the time it was made. Anything else I'd say would be a guess.
As others have said, a few repairs here would go a long way towards helping the resale value. I see an output jack tearout, and at least one of the truss-rod nut looks stripped. Other than that, and without an in-hand look, I see only some cleaning and reassembly needed. The nuts are available from Alembic. The jack repair shouldn't be that hard for any competent repair shop, and if some care is taken with the touch-up it'll look okay. Not sure what is available to you at your location.
That's an unusual and desirable bass you have there. Good luck with it.
