Not much help but.... The only LTS3000 on bikepedia is 1998 and that's a black frame.

The kit looks a bit of a mish-mash so hard to tell whats original from those piccies.
 
Re:

I`d say its a `98.The wheels look right.I think the LTS 3000 had LX with a Sugino chainset?Looks like you have some upgraded XT bits,The rest of your bike looks ok,burn the rear mech(tourney?) with fire.Gil on here should help with graphics.
 
This is a 1998 for sure, as in 1997 there was no LTS 3000 (names were different: LTS-1, LTS-2 etc.) and seat tubes were straight. This looks like it has a 1997 build kit on it. Maybe leftovers from the previous years? Maybe a midseason model? Who knows... Oh, and colors are most likely not RAL ones...
