Ideas:

Clean the flame trap and ALL associated plumbing, including checking to make sure the breather box is not restricted.

Replace all vacuum lines.

Clean fuse panel.

Replace all the fuses.

Clean all grounds you can find.

Change the engine oil and filter using a good filter on par with Mann.

Change the transmission, differential, brake, and power steering fluid.

Change the coolant.

Lube all the hood, door and trunk hinges.

Wash and wax it.

Check the air in tires and drive.

I'm sure there are more things to do, but this will get you started.
