I have acouple things that need to be done, but I'm not sure what order (or if) I should do things.

Here they are (no order):

rear-end needs rebuilding - clutches are shot, one wheel spins, differential doesn't hold

air conditioning needs repair

Shocks are worn out and the back passenger is shot (should I replace the springs too?)

CD player is broke

The car has 114k miles, but the motor is pretty strong. I drive it spairingly during school (Sept-May) and will not drive it during June or July this summer. After I graduate in May 2007, it will become a weekend/summer car. Which of these repairs do I do? (rank them if you want) I could do some over easter and some over the summer..

First get the passenger to the Hospital

I would start with the suspension and rear end. These 2 things can make the car less safe in evasive maneuvers (like when a deer jumps out in front of you at 2am).

I spent 25 bucks on ebay to get a pioneer cassette deck and 6 disc changer last summer. That is an item that you can scrounge up some good deals on.

My opinion
