3rd Gen Camaro Maintenance

Hey everyone,
I got an 84' Camaro Z28, and I was wondering what's a good preventative maintenance routine for a third gen F-body. I'm a relatively new car guy, and I got this car just last October, and I'm not super knowledgeable when it comes to mechanic work. Thanks!

Re: 3rd Gen Camaro Maintenance

When you bought the car, did you go through it and replace all the fluids, filters, maintenance items? Did the car come with any maintenance records? How many miles on the engine? .... on the car (if the engine is rebuilt or replaced)? Which engine is in the car? Automatic or manual transmission? Did the car come with an Owner's Manual?

I have a generic list of items that should be addressed when you get an older vehicle. I can copy and paste it in a new post. But the info requested above can make for a more specific list.

I changed the oil when I bought it, and I recently changed the antifreeze, but no other fluids have been changed since I bought it. I don't have maintenance records or the owner's manual. It has the original 305 HO engine with an automatic, and the engine and body have 72,000 miles.
