Answer
Hi Shawn:

does it actually show on the gauge it's running hot and is it physically overheating like pushing water out of the radtiator or do you just think it's overheating? It makes a difference. if it's physically overheating whenit's starts to run hot does the electric cooling fan come on for the radiator? if not that could be your issue here. does the a/c still work on this car? if so turn it on and let it run for a minute or 2 and see if the fan comes on it should come with the a/c as well if not then the issue is the fan not running. it could be a blown fuse a bad relay or a wiring issue going to the fan. good luck :)
