I used an undistinguished Fender Frontman as a donor amp, which I picked up on ebay, not working, for about 40 quid (I then sold most of the guts of it for about 20 quid, so I reckon it was a bargain. I kept the reverb tank which will be part of another project...) It wasn't a difficult build but there were some challenging aspects of it.
In particular, the valve heater wiring (seen below in green) was particularly fiddly. I can imagine that with five valves to run heater wiring to (neatly) it's going to be a bit trickier.
