If course, I´m going to post my results here as well. 
I wish I had a scanner that I could put the piece of 70mm film directly into. The only way I could scan the cel was to hold it up to a window, photograph it, then scan the print (I don't have a digital camera). The cel that's in my signature, I put directly on my flatbed scanner, and you can see how badly that one turned out (way too dark- and blurry).

Do you have higher resolution scans of this without jpeg compression? I was able to restore the colour completely back again in the ceremony pic (by directly working with the CMYK layers). If you view the CMY layers directly, you can clearly see what layers to how much degree have faded, and try to bring back each layer by hand adjusting brightness/contast in each layer.
Yes I do, do you want me to post it here, or email it to you so that you can play around with it? All I've got on my computer is Adobe Photodeluxe, which allows you to mess with the color balance, saturation and contrast, etc., but not much else. I'd be curious to see what results you can get.

Yeah, I see, it would have required more light, there was not much information left. The only thing I could have done is to make it look like a night scene.
