[TR] Early TR6 frame conversion for J-type overdrive

Hi all,

I am embarking on a frame swap on my '73 TR6 with J-type Overdrive. I
have an early frame (69 or 70) which I need to convert to allow the
J-type. I had planned to purchase a kit from QuantumMechanics.com but
then I had an idea. Could I cut/grind off the old mount on my existing
73 frame and re-weld it onto the early frame at the proper location?
Does this sound feasible? Anyone ever seen this done?

Many thanks and Happy Holidays!
