I need maintenance advice please.

99 C2. Just bought it with 69K miles. I am worried about these horror stories. Owner said he did all maintenance, but just in case is there a major tune up job that should be done at 69K miles? any suggestions...

Did you get maintenance records when you bought the car? Did you get a pre purchase inspection? If the owner did all the maintenance, the last scheduled one was due at 60k, which is a bigger one.

When I did my 60k service... I did the following
oil and filter change
transmission fluid
front differential fluid (C4)
spark plugs
serpentine belt
bleed brake fluid
bleed clutch fluid
changed my rear deck lid shocks...it was bad
cleaned throttle valve
checked suspension components, exhaust, and everything else underneath the car

Hope this helps..
