as john said, if you can't afford it then dont get it 
i have a car on finance but that's only because i'm in a stable, well paid job. imho, i wouldn't risk i as you get fucked over with interest etc

tbh id be surprised if you got all that for a grand.
chassis re-welded - ?
full system - 350?
buckets - 350?
suspension - 200?
engine stuff - hoses cost a fortune

my mate who works full time in a garage and has like 8 years experience is doing the chassis for 200
suspension = second hand goodies!
i guess your right about the hoses.
edit ...
also kingsleys uncle (my mateyyy) is involved with btcc and can get buckets for 150 
ahhhh i love it.
150 for buckets plus 50 for subframes
350 for system
100/150 for an alright suspension set up
chassis 200 from the garage where my mate does t and has 8 years experience.
mwill probs leave the hosing

hosing does look awesome but it is expensive. youl get a decent 2nd hand suspension set up for a decent price.
