How hard is it to make that conversion and what shop would be good for it in SoCal?

The pressing for the stering column is there already,just need punching out,you need the RHD master cylinder if its dual resovoir master cylinder,the RHD pitman arm,then the steering box can be swapped over to the other side,flip the steering arms and that part is good,then modify the tunnel to accept the RHD pedals,cut a hole through the bulkhead for the brake master cylinder to pass through,modify the wiring loom to reach the other side for the indicators and main beam dip switch if thats on there or early cars move the dip/main beam switch over so you can still reach it with your foot,OH and a RHD dash is always a good idea:-),its needed for the steering column top mount
