Congratulations on your purchase! Looks beautiful!
I would be more worried if your car stopped making the hissing sound from the steering wheel. It's one of the lovable quirks.
One thing that I always check is for plant matter and dirt by the ac condenser (in the tub under the slots in your hood). There is a drain in the bottom that comes out in the passanger wheel well, but you want to make sure that it is running freely. If it gets clogged with a leaf or pine needles then rainwater has no place to go and can cause problems.
I would also advise you to take a look at the condition of your coolant reservoir. On both of my Saabs there were pressure cracks forming in the reservoir around the age of your car.
Finally, having a spare distributor cap and rotor is a good idea, and is very inexpensive.
Enjoy your new car!
