the speedo issue is a bad motor on the odometer and speedo. it is a common failure and the motor is not available any more. i get them from e bay for about 100 bucks.
the blower motor may be failed or the blower resistor. you need this checked out to verify.

the stereo may be a bad ground but needs to be verified.

let a shop verify this stuff for you and give you a bid.
