2000 GT Pro Series Mini

I wanted to get my son a GT since his initials are GTS. I picked up mini off of eBay fairly cheaply to get him racing but I couldn't live w/the bike the way it was. I stripped it down to the frame, then stripped the paint in two stages, got rid of the spray w/Duct tape (see photos) then used citrus strip to get to bare metal. Those GTs were such a beautiful blue! I asked my son what color he wanted when it came time for powder. As many sons would say, "black like yours daddy". So black it is.

Oh well, I had a lot of fun building it!
