Since you just bought the car I would recommend a slightly different approach.
I would take the car to a speed shop, local mechanic, maybe a Ford dealer and have them go over the car while it's on the rack. Check for any leaks, wet spots, anything that doesn't look right, etc. You can still change the oil and coolant yourself before hand but I would check transmission fluid, brake fluid, and the rear axle. Remove the wheels to inspect the brake rotor and pad condition. Check the condition of the engine belt and air cleaner.
Obviously you want some place that's reputable and will go over the entire car. It may be best to see exactly what you're working with and understand if there are any maintenance issues you might have to deal with either now or in the near future.
