85 SPG sell it or keep it? long

It is my former daily driver with 227K. I added a 2000 Aero wagon a few years ago and we also have an 11 Explorer. After sitting for two years the paint was oxidizing and faded really bad and my neighbor loved to adjust his sprinklers to hit it. I wasn't sure if it would start. The battery was totally dead and would not charge. I had been putting it off because deep down I didn't want to sell. My wife took the initiative to get a new battery and it started on the first crank. Yet, I had come to terms with letting go. Then she did something really rotten, she took it and got it detailed. It looks amazing, I had originally thought it would be bought for parts. I had read here about how to bring back paint etc. but I have twin two year olds and no time. For $100 it looks great. She is now questioning if we should sell because it is a cheap third car that looks great. It still needs a headliner, driver seat cover and it has a crack in the window.
So, my questions
How much would fair market value be? I see prices all over the board.
How successful are Saabnet ads in rural areas(Montana)? I would hate to Craigslist it and have some nut drive it into the ground.
We have been going back and forth and are looking for outside suggestions.
TIA,
Kevin
