all parts swap over ok, be easier to get a decent mk2 and scrap the front end, then put a mk1 front on.
i started with nothing, still have most of it left

The phase 2 mk2 , got the rear spring hangers bushes bigger than the mk1. The rubber bushings in a cone shape are inserted in a tube in the chasis, There fore this part isn't the same.
and the front hangers have a different shape, but same position of hole ie it doesnt matter.
