Not gonna happen. A bud just got one locally via a dealer for $480 shipped. Great frame, though.
For your budget, try a Centurion Lemans or Lemans RS, $100-$200 complete bike, sell off the parts.
Has all the items you need, but just one set of eyelets front and rear. Use the $200 you save on equipment / components.
