lol thats what we were trying to tell you. Glad you got it fixed. Nice to see no paint on the radiator. I had mine rebuilt a few months ago and never thought about it. Paint actually hinders cooling a bit.

Update: an old friend of mine has a 78 sitting in a field behind his house because he totaled it last year. So I went and looked and there are no brackets whatsoever on the bottom. Just 2 rubber pieces that the radiator sits on. So I took those and the top piece off of his shroud . It's long enough to go across the top of the whole radiator and the corners sit square in 2 more rubber groves. "Almost" fit like a glove, just had to do a little bit of tweaking. She's alive! And out of gas.. Lol

Yep, that's what I was getting at. All I've seen is grooves, not a bracket to speak of, for the rubber to sit in on the core support and that's it.
