What about the opposite conversion. Retro-fitting a Hassy 1600F with a P6 mount?
No go. You wouldn't be able to focus it to infitity. P6 has the shortest
lens registration distance of MF SLR systems (which probably explains
why the viewfinder image is so undersized - there isn't enough room for
a full-size mirror).

With newer Hassies only 0.8mm = 1/32" of metal to grind away. That just
might be feasible, if you can solve the shutter problem.
