Hi again Peter,
The short answer to your first question is no.
Some parts you would need for the conversion are not available as spare parts....and the costs; engine, the whole cutter clutch assembly, engine shaft, plus the fact it is an early model (replacement bearings etc) it just is not worth it.
Q2. some parts are common, but just remember it does not have a cutter clutch.
Q3. You would have to source one from a company that sells or reconditions single phase 240V, 50Hz electric motors.
I believe a 17" petrol would suit your needs better.
