fans and AC

[SUNSHINE Higgins <Sizie52@xxxxxxx>]

I have a 3 core radiator... 60 amp  alternator and a sandon air compressor in 
my 1962 Dodge dart Wagon. The AC  worked fine until I drove it in a parade; 
that's when my car overheated. My car  has never been the same since and tends 
to run on the low to mid end of the  hot side no matter what kind of driving I 
do, except: my car tends to  run to the higher side of hot even faster if I 
am in stopped  traffic at a red light or slow traffic on a busy day.
  I don't know why this is...even  though I had the thermostat replaced.  My 
mechanic says an electric fan installed would help prevent this  problem. It's 
funny, because I never had this problem until after my car  overheated that 
one time.
 
 Any suggestions as to what kind of  fan or whatever I should put in it to 
prevent it from running hot or  overheating? Also, what if I want to drive it in 
a parade ever again? I  live in NY, and the temps have been as high as 101 
degrees in summer...but this  is short lived and not the norm. I usually do not 
use the AC, 1. because of the  problem with my car running hot...and, 2. 
because...it never really cools enough  to make too much of a difference. Any help 
or suggestions are  appreciated.
Thanks.
 
Susan
