OK, I see what is happening here $-wise and I suggest you have not looked well enough into your options, so I suggest instead:
1 - heater core and head gasket done by a pro for under $1000.
2 - body work in all 4 wheel wells - under $50 - easily do-able by you.
3 - hatch shocks are no longer expensive.
4 - Brand new stereo for around $100 for a good one with USB and SD slot.
So now even given ALL the quirky things in your beloved Aero, is it worth fixing REALLY WELL for under $1500 ?
And finally:
> my heart says yes, but my wallet says "are you crazy?"
All I can say is that a person who ignores their Heart in such matters is just begging for sadness later.
The wallet can ALWAYS be refilled.
Best Wishes,
mark
