That's more like it, most of this stuff is minor (except for the AC). I would probably go for it:

New wiper blades- $56 ($56 wiper blades?) - Yup, that's silly. You can buy blades to fit anyplace

Belts are slightly dry cracked - $85 That sounds fair, the belts cost about $30 and take about an hour (or less) to install

Fuel loop hoses leaking - $39 Just do it yourself, about $10 for the hose and 5 minutes to install

New battery- $119 - You can get a good battery for about $80 at the parts store and they will even install it

Air filter- $28 - You can buy it online for about $15 and install in 2 minutes

Rear brake pads- $95 - The pads cost about $40, this sounds fair or you can do it yourself

Exhaust hangers dry cracked- $8 - $2 rubber donuts

Front brake pads- $120 - That's about right if they also need to replace the rotors, you can do the rotors yourself but it's kind of a PITA

Shifter bushings- $56 - That sounds about right

Rear stabilizer links- $113 - About $25 for the parts, you can do it yourself if you don't mind crawling around under the car

Rear axle boots- $350 - You have to decide what you really want to do, replace just the boots or replace the entire half-shaft for more money, if the CV joints are OK this is a decent price

A/C compressor(R12) $1335 - That sounds about right, stick to R-12

Front fender trim- $85 - I don't know the price, but it sounds OK

Hazard switch/turn signals- $25 - Sounds OK
