Nah, Dylan, he's going to "seal" the parts- probably involves swimming around harbours looking for parts and perhaps a little basking on the shore. :-)
Mike- buying a complete road bike (eBay, gumtree, local ads etc) and then buying a rear track wheel is probably the best way to go. There's wealth of information on the forum about doing builds and many people have used parts for sale too, so do some reading and bide your time. I hear you about the student budget, but take your time with the build. It's more fun that way.
