gran sport to supersport

i've been hunting for a top tank moped for a while and i've come up with nothing, whenever i do find something it gets snatched up, or the seller never gets back to me. i'm about to go pick up a new ped even though its not a top tank and had the thought.... is it possible to turn my old ped into a top tank?

i have a 78 garelli gransport. i was already planning to take it apart and have it powder-coated so it wouldn't be going too far out of my way to do the work. but how hard would it be to turn the gran-sport into a super sport? i'm looking at pictures and all i see is a small bracket under the seat and the seat with cover itself, the rack and is the same shape, the rest of the body looks the same to me.... do i just weld on the bracket and get the other parts?

suggestions? comments?

how would i make the bracket for the seat and does anyone know of any other changes i need to make?

It would be way easier to weld a crossbar and use whatever other tank and seat you wanted.
