I'm not a purist, but I don't see anything on your list that would make the car appreciably more dependable.
I would insure ALL systems are in top condition. Not only the engine as PC/SR has suggested, but the fuel system, electrical system, suspension, steering, brakes, etc. All need to be examined closely (with help from an expert if necessary) and put into "as new" condition. This will do far more for dependability than replacing distributors, generators, adding gauges, etc.
Just my opinion.
