Wrong section BTW, but nevermind.

You have the Ideal situation, You have a whole donor car. Change the whole lot IMO, literally everything. Engine, interior and engine looms, shafts, struts, rear beam, front bumper and bonnet

The only thing I might leave is steering rack (especially if there is no PAS on the 1.2) as the PAS racks can be trouble.

i have already dun all the interiour evenin the carpet
im finkin take the engine out on the sub frame and swop it straight over
and see if the loom is ok if not the change that over

[aaron_g_1988]

how is it a phase 3

 

[Final Maxim]

phase 3 are bubble lights (yours)

mk 1 ph 2 is the square headlights with colour coded grille

mk 1 ph 1 is the one with the non colour coded dual strip grille

Rip everything off the valver & refurb it ie paint the rear beam, subframe etc then put it all on the newer car, I'd also get the bonnet modified so it fits with the ph3 lights and put the valver front arches on

sorry my spellin isnt the best aint the worst in the world

If you put the valver engine in the Ph3, I *think* the bonnet wont shut thats why there is the bulge.

But to be able to swap the bonnets over, you'll need wings, lights, bumper..

I wouldn't worry.. The CS spelling police are nothing to worry about.... keyboard warriors!
