You're right about this and the mindset can be invaluable.
Don't be to sure about costing more to restore, if you find a complete you like, it may take more to find out that you could have started with a frame or lesser one and made it your own, either way yields experience, balancing it is the key in the long run.
Either way you're also right about the journey, the process will set the tone for things to come and will also be invaluable.
The epiphanys and pitfalls can build a lot of skill and satisfaction as well as shape your program, wheelhouse will be all yours once you get there whatever that happens to be.
