Frame Recommendations for Modern Build

Hey collectors/bike lovers...currently I commute with a 84 Trek 510. First older bike (and road bike too) and I enjoy how it feels; much more comfortable than my aluminum mountain bikes.

I want to build up a bike of similar feel (Reynolds or Columbus tubing) with modern components to have as a fast/recreational bike. So I turn to you to ask for frame suggestions.

Thoughts...I don't want to build up a holy grail of a frame that is worth something to somebody. I could potentially collect parts slowly for my current bike and built it up. I could be just finding an excuse to build another bike.

So in all seriousness, what is a decent quality frame to build up that isn't hundreds of dollars?
