I am being to think that a pre1970 cars (mine is 68 69j has different brackets. If I mounted mine as shown in the phots the radiator will sit too high. My top bracket looks the same but the crossbrace is 5/16 dia and doesn’t have a support for the radiator it is only used for holding the radiator in the vertical position via a brace back to the toolbox

That said, the radiator should sit on top of the mounts. Early cars didn't use bobbins and just had a rubber pad with a bolt through it

Maybe the short brackets to the chassis are fitted upside down.
.+8 Now gone for a 1800 4/4. Duratec in bright yellow.

As previous comment the brackets are not handed. I can either move the Chassis brackets down so that the rad can sit on the rubbers, make a “U” shaped bracket so the rubber to sit on top of it, OR leave on cotton reels with a keep wire round to prevent the rad from fallin, if the rubber fails
I have taken a photo but the file size is too big
