That is because the aftermarket companies have settled on the more universal car style radiators.

Last summer the pump on my 250 exploded allowing the fan to chew up the radiator. As you can see, it (right) had already been repaired once. Someone blocked off a row that was leaking.

Had an original rad from a '69 GTO (left) and it was almost identical except lacking the lower upturn. Ended up installing the hose first, then dropping the radiator in place. No biggie.
