First do a good tune and get an alignment. Depending on the service records you should do a Mobil 1 oil change, flush and fill the cooling system, change the tranny fluid with synthetic fluid and do the same for the rear gears. Clean out the trash from between your radiator and AC condensor. Have someone check your rotors and pads and brake hoses. Then wax the snot out of it and use leather preservative on the seats.

re
Those are all great suggestions.... I need (want) a set of chrome door kick plates. A complete fluid change with synthetics is first priority.
BTW to our 707 drvr. I work as a pilot in St. Louis MO an EMB 145 is an Embraer 145 Regional Jet. You know, the express planes that you get crammed in to when you fly on the airlines to smaller cities, or in my case in and out of STL. Thanks again to all... Pics to come
