Can I convert my Mobile Home plumbing to standard?

I’m installing sinks in my bathroom and kitchen in my single wide mobile home. All of the plumbing is fixed, it has copper running straight to the faucets, no stops or threaded fittings. Can I just cut in the fittings and solder them in and attach normal coupling hoses etc to my new sinks?
It looks like standard size copper pipe coming up from the floor but then it is stepped down to thin copper tubing which then goes straight to the faucet handles.

Thinking of purchasing a building lot and a mobile home to go on it. Can we put a basement as the foundation instead of just a slab? How different is the plumbing and such? (I imagine not too different?) Thanks.
Why would it be dangerous? Thanks again.

My sister died in 2002. She left her mobile home to her son who is unable to maintain it. He is now 22 years old, no parents, unemployed. His family is trying to help him with decisions. The mobile home needs new flooring, plumbing, and general repairs. Is there an organization or company he can donate to? Thank you for your sincere responses.

Are there any manufacturers of modular housing that will do all of the exterior work, plumbing, electrical work and stop there so that once it is installed onsite I can put my own flooring in, build my own cabinets, drywall, install light fixtures, basically all of the interior finish work? I would do the tub sinks etc is this possible? where? who? got a website?
modular NOT manufactured- same financing as stick built

I am contemplating buying a modular home to put on a piece of property in MI, the cost of the home itself is K. Does anyone have a rough estimate what it costs to install the home and do all the interior work such as foundation, utilities, interior walls, plumbing, electrical, heating, cabinets etc?
