Your budget seems realistic. So many people underestimate the costs and effort required. Important would be to find a car which is complete, and as little as possible rust. Most things can be refurbished quite easily, but to replace items e.g. like window sill trim gets expensive quickly (anything which needs input in pounds) and replacing body panels like side sills gets tricky.

Attached is a comprehensive list of what I spent. The car was almost free, and the motor had already been overhauled even though I took it apart again. Since then more has been spent, but only improving things here and there.
Can't upload spreadsheets so you lose the filtering convenience...

Good luck!

What an excellent response!
