Should I have a cross flow or down flow radiator?

My Vista Cruiser has a cross flow radiator (tanks on the sides) Is this correct? I didn't think GM used cross flow radiators until 69.
It runs a little warm on the highway. Just looking at things right now.

67 Olds A bodies run cross flow radiators. I think 66 was first year.
