What the heck is this GT...? Weird Model...
 

I Love vintage GT MTB's and own several, but I have never seen a GT BMX bike w/ an old school stem/neck like this, stamped bars, stamped seatpost, metal head badge, and a QUICK RELEASE SHOCK/SUSPENSION OF SOME SORT....

WTH is this thing?? I initially thought that it was an old or mid school model from CA, but it must be from the late 90's right? Would this be from China w/ a cool old stem like that?

There is no serial # anywhere to be found.....There is no sign that there ever was one...

The shock reads: "GT Model TC-8 Tucson"

that seatpost is really strange...

I agree!!

I'm not even sure if it's supposed to be a laid-back.....

It makes the bike look like a bomber though....

Check on BMXMuseum.com, one of the collectors there may have some notion.

That is a nutty looking ride.

Thanks you guys,
I'll give that a try!
Do you have any idea about the "GT 2000" decal on the downtube? Would that be something that they did around the late-90's or something...??

I think that it would be cool if it was a GT made in the USA. But if it's from China I will probably just donate it to the local bike co-op and look for a better project....

I've never seen a bike like this.....
