Where the negative cable goes varies according the engine. What year / engine do you have? If it's 68, I can help.
As for the tranny cooler in the radiator, if you have an auto, you should have one.

Negative cable should go the the side of the engine block, just above the oil pan, towards the front, right behind the alternator. This would be for the typical v8 engines.

Depending on your year, the radiator should either have two threaded holes about 8 inches apart at the bottom near the center, or for the 71-73 years it would be on the driver's side radiator tank.

You probaly have small fine pipe thread going into the radiator, and the lines are probably a larger flare thread. You don't just need a joiner, you need the proper fittings. Check your Yellow Pages for a radiator shop nearby and see if they have something suitable in stock.
