It's not confirmed that the Abrams will be newly-built hulls, although that may be the easiest solution. We know that conversion is possible because the US government signed a contract with GDLS to remove and replace armor on US tanks for Poland.

As /u/AllomancersAnonymous alluded to, there are export variants in service with Egypt and Saudi Arabia, but it's unknown whether the US will be able to buy tanks back from them.
