Please I need some information and help

[hescobar]

I was informed I need the following work in my car (1994 E 420):

1)Car has alternator/starter harness exposed bare wires, could cause electrical fire.(How could this happened?, can they repair only the exposed wires?, they tell me the car needs to be totally re-wired)

2)Transmission cool lines leaking.(Is this a major repair?)

3)Shifter bushings one is worn, other is missing.(What are shifter bushings?, where are they located? how many are there? how can you worn one and loose the other?)

Please let me know if this is an expensive repair,I would very much appreciate any comments regarding this matter. Thank you.
