I converted it about 15-20 years ago, I don't remember what the base plate came from, I cut off the one side, reversed and rotated it and welded it back in w/a bulge for the gas bottle. There is a piece of 2X2 bolted at the back of the base plate for a back stop for the welder. Also a piece of tapered wood under the bottle so it sits square to the back cross piece. Only problem is that the welder has to be pulled forward to open the side door for maintenance.
