It does have a (broken) A/C system... that's why I wanted to replace it with a more modern climate control system. And it's a 2-door.

Re what kind of transmission it is... how do I tell the difference?

Re the brake advice: Thanks. I didn't think of that >_<

Re the X frame thing: What is this and why is it a problem?

Re the boring out the engine tip: What is this? Is it easy to do, or should I have a local garage do it for me?

This is really my first time trying to do anything more complex with a car other than changing the oil filter, so I'm grateful for any and all tips and and advice.
