Beautiful car and great find. It sounds like you are well read on the maintenance and upkeep, but make sure that you took care of all the things that degrade with time rather than miles. Original tires? - they may look good, but old tires can be deadly at speed. Consider changing the water pump and serpentine belt. There's been some discussions in the last year or two and there may be a good complete list. Maybe a lube for the top mechanism and window regulators too as a preventative - the parts are likely good, but grease is dry or gone. Maybe just prompt your shop about what else could be effected by age rather than miles.

Not trying to be a downer at all, just remembering stories from some other very low mile cars.
Nice pics & Welcome to the forum!
