Check out this HF rig kit from China:
TH2000A Dual Conversion HF transceiver Kit - eBay (item 280286054495 end time May-14-09 22:50:01 PDT)
The price is only $250 for a 10 watt kit that works from 100kHz to 30Mhz. It looks to me like it could be a fun project for the price. I know it's not going to have all the features of a full blown HF rig from Icom, Kenwood, Yaesu, etc., but I still bet it would be fun to build.
It's only a little more than an expensive CB!
