Hello Everyone. I just got my Mark VIII 3wks ago and I can't wait to dress her up. I have a 1995 with only 72000 miles on it. What should I do too her first? Any suggestions?

Basics:
Fluid changes
Brake Flush
Trans (with Mercon V only)
Coolant-make sure the Tech knows about Marks and Cobras and how to purge air pockets).

Now you can play...
 
Brozly is right - go through the suspension. You may be okay for a while, but the closer you get to 100k, the closer your ball joints are to the end of their livelihood. If you're doing it yourself, splurge the extra few dollars for the control arm/ball joint combo setup. You'll get all new bushings as well as the ball joints that way. I ended up finding shot tie rod ends at the same time.
