It sounds like you are doing the right thing, drawing a "baseline" on the car and replacing rubber and consumables before they fail. No question, it will cost less and your enjoyment of the car will be higher than doing things as they become obvious. I did many of these things on both of my cars and I have gotten (knock on wood) 70K of relatively trouble-free miles out of that work. If you don't plan on keeping the car forever, document everything and save the receipts; you will get back a good percentage of your dollar.
