I drove a '71 Catalina for many years so I'm partial to that generation of full size Pontiacs. One thing you'll need to do in your sunny climate is try to protect the interior - the dash can crack and the upholstery will break down from the UV rays. If that's a vinyl roof (I can't tell in the picture if it's vinyl or paint) it will suffer from the sun as well. In wetter climates, water gets under the vinyl through cracks and rusts out the roof.

edit: I see in the interior pic that your car has the optional full gauge package, instead of idiot lights. That's a rare and desirable option.
