How hard would it be to convert something like this to GURPS?

On a quick skim, it looks like it would be pretty straight-forward? Even not really knowing anything about TFT, I was going "That's an IQ roll, that's a DX roll, that's a lockpicking roll." If I were going to get really fiddly, I'd read TFT so I'd know what kinds of penalties/bonuses were being talked about, but with a generous attitude towards the conversion, it might work as-is? Maybe know what MA means in TFT.

MA in TFT is “Movement Allowance”.

It is easier going from GURPS to TFT, since you are decreasing resolution and simplifying. An experienced GM who knows both systems would find that TFT provides a reasonable sketch of GURPS characters, but will need to fill in some of the details.
