No one buys a popular classic car with the idea of saving money!
If you are going to build this as an EV and you want 50-70 mile range then you need lithium batteries.
tough part is do you want a single, fixed gear, manual transmission or an automatic.
I'm pretty sure there is someone out there who makes an adapter for pretty much any popular motor to fit a Ford transmission, so you can build this whole car with off the shelf parts, you will have to weld some motor mounts an battery boxes, that is about it, the rest of the parts you can buy then bolt together.
The hard part is that you want to fit these parts to a 45 year old car.
