Default Transmission lines question/advice

My car has a trans cooler mounted to the front of the radiator via previous owner. I’m replacing the radiator and trans lines. Car is a 67 400 without heat/air with Dougs long tube headers. What’s the best way to run these lines? Should I keep the trans cooler or just run to radiator? Car is rarely driven.. pics of your setup with headers appreciated.

If you intend to drive it in a cold climate best to run it in a series with radiator as it will keep the trans fluid at a hot enough temperature. If you do only the auxiliary cooler, it may not heat up adequately in cold weather due to air cooling at speed.
