I would knock up a ICD (clone), or ROMZAP..... (or 2).
I would have a reasonable vref for A2D etc , one of those precision
2.5 volt I.Cs (or other handy item) and a few SLA batteries say
some 12 and 6 volt of varying capacity, a battery source can help
eliminate a multitude of noise sources and isolation problems during
development.
I would also recommend a modest function generator.
