Excellent advice Ray, the only thing I'd add is to make sure that the engine coolant has some anti-corrosion properties.
Most (but not all) of today's proprietory anti-freeze and summer coolant mixtures contain corrosion inhibitors, and this is particularly important on vehicles with aluminium engine components. (Cylinder heads, water pumps, etc)
The only other one I can think of is a long-term precaution - a coating of vaseline or light grease on the chrome and bright mazak pieces in areas of high corrosion. (ie near the coast.)
Good luck with your Holden, Jen!
