Does the car run hot when in motion, while idling or both? If it does it at idle and not on the highway suspect fan. If it does it at highway speeds check for clogged radiator, failed water pump, stuck thermostat or possibly clogged cooling jacket on engine.

Chances are you've already cracked the heads on it so be weary of this beforehand but pull the thermostat first
