I want to fix myself if I can.
The AC clutch - (center of AC ?)does not turn
Engine noise abated since failure of AC
Can a I repair with new/used parts then have a AC shop recharge the unit?
( note on car says that ac refig is enviro friendly)

Your description sounds like a possible compressor failure and it may be beyond your skill set my friend. I also wish to point out that the A/C systems in cars are under high pressure and repairs to the system should be carried out by an experienced technician with certifications.
