Default 1940 PU upper radiator mounting bracket

Hi all, are these the correct upper mounting brackets for a 1940 PU & can anyone show a picture of upper mounts on a truck? https://www.dennis-carpenter.com/tru...SABEgJjD_D_BwE

Mine has an odd configuration & the radiator doesn’t look stock. Can one of you take a pic of the mounting orientation of those brackets on the truck? Here’s a couple pics I think shows what Mine looks like. Pics were of engine but shows the home made non stock metal strap hold down radiator brackets.

The brackets mount to the side of the radiator and bolt to the inner fender panels. look for slots in the sides of the radiator.

Lol, kinda thought that engine would draw a comment I’m not at the truck’s location or I would’ve taken a more localized pic avoiding engine if I was there .
It was the only pics I had showing the existing radiator & support brackets. I want to put a radiator made for increased HP which are easily bought & wanted to see how the stock Upper mounts look. The radiators I’m looking at appear to have mounting holes on sides to accommodate the stock brackets.
