New clutch kit,clutch slave and master cylinder for $220 and new windshield installed by safelite for $337. That made it roadworthy and over next year and a half put on stainless steel muffler $65,painted car myself for $350,new front seats $245,polyurethane entire suspension $105,wheels and tires $875,powder coated valve cover $200,plus about $200 more in misc hoses,sparkplugs,hoses,belt,etc grand total @3000,but did start as a $250 car
