Dell XPS M1530, M1330 Parts

Hey,
My xps m1530 laptop got pretty badly damaged however all of its internal components are ok. So I was wondering if I can buy a cheap, low grade xps m1330 and put my upgraded parts from my 1530 into the 1330 (hard drive, RAM, video card, etc.) Would this be a possibility?

Thanks

Not sure about the GPU but the rest should be fine.

let me get this straight..... if I can find a refurbished m1330 with about same graphics card as my m1530, I should be able to have the m1330 running with similar performance as my m1530? sorry im not that experienced with computers :/

Pretty much so, minus the GPU part now since I am not sure about putting the 1530 GPU onto a 1330 machine.
