What's the better proposal do you guys think?

Making my ph1 happy with the bits from a spare ph2 or making the 2 happy with bits from the one. I'm assuming this is gonna come down to personal opinion but thought I would ask.

Also are there any differences between parts on the ph2/ph1 that I should look out for. I really just want the rear beam and suspension from the ph2.

Just to fill in, the Ph2 needs a gearbox and bonnet and the ph1 needs a rear beam (tortion bars gone as you know) and could probably benefit from front shocks n springs too.

Well I have two working gearboxes so that's no prob just the ph2 bonnet and whatever else I pinch off it. So by the time I'm done fixing the ph1 the ph2 will need even more work. May just sell for spares, although what panels are the same on the ph2's as the ph1's ie are the rear quater panels or front wings the same?

Woohoo. The ph1 is getting a makeover baby! Very Happy

I'm gonna have a field day with this one, just found out it's 449 blue, just like my ph1. Very Happy yay.

With any luck I can take PS Rack and other goodies off it!
