Brake flexible hoses - check for any cracking (probably just swap them)
Wheel cylinders - roll the dust seal back and check for fluid
Meat on brakepads/shoes, and undersized discs/oversized drums
Ball joints - I always replace them, or you could lap them and re-shim depending on condition
Shocks - any leaks usually
Seat belts - any signs of fraying or fading
Rips in seats
Fuel flexy lines
Bad oil leaks

About all I can think of at the moment.
