98+ 400's are rare, but that particular I've in autotrader since august/ septemeber when I bought my car

LCA = Lower control arms, which are a part of your rear suspension. The bushings are normally rubber on stock cars, so they can wear out and cause metal-on-metal clanking/clunking. This can also occasionally be an issue for front strut mounts as well.
I'm not sure how you would inspect the bushings exactly (without a lift of some sort), given that the car sits relatively low. But if the car doesnt clank/cluck when going over bumps, that should be a good thing.
Oh, and only the '99 and '00 SC's have the three-spoke steering wheel stock.
EDIT: Per habitat, I mistakenly inferred the LCA's were only part of the rear suspension. Thanks for pointing that out; I'm not a car expert by any means, but I should have known that!

but damn you are lucky with your barn find , i thought i had low mileage (KM) with 146k kilometer with 1 owner
1 advice ...check your car on dry out bushings/tyres and replace all the fluids
