I bought my project one for £350 of eBay but have spent well over two grand so far on bits and bobs and I reckon I will spend more, its not how much its how much you can afford and its what you want out of it at the end , how it looks and runs, and most important its road legal, it takes alot of work tobget them there so my advice if your looking cheap be prepaird to spend at least a grand to get it road legal and nothing else, so is how much time and effort and tears that it costs, plus not forgetting even once road legal the work on them never stops as they always like a wife/girlfriend/partner they demand time and money to keep them happy. :-)
