Making an assumption that the '64 and '65 are the same I find the following
in the parts book for 1965.
13-01-0 Frame Assembly
Imperial, except conv. cp. up to S/N 129749
p/n 2409 089
Imperial, except conv. cp. after S/N 129749
p/n 2460 999
Conv. cp. up to S/N 133026
p/n 2409 090
Conv. cp. after S/N 133026
p/n 2460 098
To me it appears that the frames are not the same.
Hope that this is helpful in your decision.
