depends as to what you class as over heating really, every car (older cars i should imagine) will get warmer the slower your going. You should start worrying if your fan doesnt kick in, also does the grill on your bumper have the plastic plate covering the back of it?
if so take it off,engine should run cooler with it off as there is more air getting in
