Build one decent 2.3 out of the pair of them, polish up the 2.0 engine and use it as a garden ornament!
Turn the redundant bodyshell into a matching trailer/camper and use the best bits from both on the main car.
Job done i reckon!

... or: buy both full of good intentions, have them set up on stands on the drive and lawn, start cutting out rust, carry on cutting out rust, cut out some more rust, buy a MIG welder (convinced it is dead easy, just like on You Tube), give up after next winter when the wife/girlfriend/boyfriend/significant other half leaves because she/he is tired of trying to find a parking spot in the road... the council enforces a notice to remove them.
