Turning it from an old autoXing car to a daily driver, need the car for mpg
the boot your talking about, is that the axle? if so, id check power steering, rack n pinion, make sure theyre all good, and replace that axle.
if the brake pads or rotors have ever been replaced, id get down there and pull the calipers, and check to see if any of the pistons are seized. (you wouldnt even be able to tell the brakes arent doing theyre job if only 1 piston is seized, unless your a reallll good mechanic and pay attention to your hubs and the wear on rotors)
definitely would drop the gas tank and/or siphon the gas out if its been sitting that long, definitely need a oil change, not too sure about trans fluid. i just heard if the cars been sitting for more than 2 months, definitely change your oil.
if you can do it yourself, or have the funds for a dealership/speed shop, id get the valves adjusted and lashed.
i believe 100-120k u want to do the water pump too, along with thermostat.
Id probably replace the Dizzy, wires, plugs also.
thats all i can think of for now, on the top of my head. goodluck.
