Sorry dude...
Nope, that frame change was in '78, that's when they gave the back seat passengers more foot room.

The earlier body will fit on the later frame but not vice versa, the frame on the early ones rises directly behind the driver and there's not room for the bigger footwell of the '78 & up.
