A-Body frame question

Good afternoon Fam, I hope that all are doing well! My question is could I sit my 72 chevelle body on a 69 chevelle convertible frame? Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks in advance!!

The convertible frames also have an extra body mount (1 per side) at the firewall that won't be used on your coupe body.
Just mentioning it before you scratch your head looking at it ;)

Jeff you are completely correct I forgot about the extra mounts...regardless everything else is just a simple bolt in affair.
