Looks awesome Andrew -looks more like my 95 SLE SC than my 99 SSEi with the chrome t-stars. 
I might suggest you revise the outside pics to pics with the sunroof slanted open. Will help to catch any potential buyers eyes -whenever I see a pic of a SSEi, even if there is a pic of the sunroof I try to focus on the initial exterior pics to verify a sunroof option.
Also, if you can get the engine up to operating temp parked then pull it into the garage and polish the painted part of the core-support and use Armor all on all the black underhood plastic. That will really help to bring it out and will really give a bling factor to someone coming to look at the car, as well as tell them that the car has definitely been cared for.

Stunning as usual! Very nice work, Andrew.
I was thinking of doing my spring clean and detail but now I might just wait and let you do it

I just went back and looked at the original pics for comparison. Good job reviving her 
I don't think you will have any problems selling it quickly.
maybe a member would like to take her home.

Marty, I'd detail it even more if my fingers wouldn't freeze while doing it. My fingers were numb after polishing those wheels.

Boy do I wish I was in the car market right now 
Car looks beautiful, Andrew, it really does. I'd think that you could get 3k pretty easily for that car. If I got suckered into paying 3200 for my '92 with 118k miles, you could get away with 3k... It'* that spotless.

Sorry in advance if its already been debated over.

Those rims really brightened up that car. Great revival...Cody almost had me wanting to buy it...seriously. I mean I'd love to but...eh you know my story.
Hope the sale goes well, I'm sure it will, being that Bonnie looks sooooo great!
