Default Today's mini detail my '97 SC400

Just did the usual hand wash, clayed the hood (I rotate this stuff) and put on a layer of Prima Banana Gloss. Vacuumed and cleaned interior and applied Griot's leather cleaner/conditioner to the seats.

attaching a few pix

Didn't do anything to the car but I did register my SC for the Upcoming NEO Classics 80's and 90's Car Show at the Toyota Headquarters in Torrance next month!

It's going to be a sweet show!!!

Finally, it makes sense why you've put so much work into a car you barely drive.

I would drive it a lot more if it got better gas mileage! I drive 120 miles a day round trip to work and back so it's a killer on gas with a lot of traffic compared to my Prius which gets me 46 MPG! Lol

And yes I've been getting it ready for some shows!

I hear ya. I'm trying to use the SC less for the short in-town jaunts where it's not fully warmed up by the time I reach my destination.

Knock 'em dead! I can't imagine there are many mintier SCs than yours.

Swapped out the thermostat to a brand new unit, bled cooling system, and installed a Carbing cooling plate to help channel the air better.
