1999 GT XCR 3000 rebuild/restore

Retro Newbie
Hey guys

Going to be posting my progress of resurrecting my brothers old GT XCR 3000. So far I've stripped it and taken the frame apart.

Next steps are to:

- bead/shot blast the whole frame
- machine a disc mount for the rear triangle
- weld disc mount
- spray up frame and leave rear triangle raw with lacquer
- machine new bushes for main pivot and for the RS Monarch RT3 rear shock I will be using
- rebuild i-drive with new bearings
...all at work :)
