There is nothing about any of the small projects you have listed that should scare off a shade tree DIY'er.
And, for the guy in Manchester - I am in Nashua and a regular contributor here - if you run into specific problems let me know. I've helped out one or two locals with projects on occasion.

Marty, the BEST car is a free car, but a $700 car is pretty close. My 240D project was $400.
I'm in Winchendon, MA which is just south of Keene, NH, north central MA, its nice to see so many New England folks on here.
Last September some other Mercedes enthusiasts and I got together at Goddard state park in RI. We had 6 cars which we all thought was a pretty good showing for our first try. We'll probably make this an annual thing, I'll remember to post on here next year.
