Not a frogeye per say but PIECES has a frogeye nose and it was a US spec
73 Midget at one time.
It takes about a day to switch over to RHD. After all they were designed
for RHD.
You have to shorten some dash wires (or just loop them), get a RHD
steering rack (LHD Morris Minor is RHD spridget) and a dash.
Plumbing is a direct swap over with some mods to the hydraulic pipes.
All the holes are there for high beam wires, accellerator cable, and
welded nuts for gas pedal linkage.
The wipers will park on the wrong side but it is not that big a problem.
