Default Android phone

So my son dropped his Galaxy S2 and I am not going to buy him a brand new phone so does anyone have and old S2 kicking about I can use as a donor phone to replace then LCD screen, it is the actual LCD thats smashed not the digitizer!

Either that or a similarly spec'd Android device I can replace it with?

Do you mean it's just the glass that is broken?

I had it apart last night but the digitizer and actual screen are bonded, the LCD does not even turn on and is clearly smashed, the digitizer (glass) may be cracked but you can't feel them if you get me meaning, the front is still smooth.

I know stupid money. He never does things by halves. It's actually cheaper to by a faulty phone and just swap the motherboard over. Just seeing if anyone had anything here. I know the MO are good with things like this.
