Another point might be to inspect all boots for dry-rot. Add Shin-Etsu grease to all seals(doors, top, windshield frame).

where exactly and how do you apply the grease? like on the joints/metal parts?
can you show me some pics or detailed instructions? thx!!

The Shin-Etsu grease goes on the rubber moldings to keep them supple. It's probably time for me to do it again. Find someone who has a tube, give them a dollar, and use a few drops... it only takes a couple of pea-sized spots to do the entire car, and the tube is huge.

If it's soft rubber, grease it.
