First off remember there are no original equipment electric fans on these old girls, and idleing for 20 minutes will cause the best of them to overheat. You gotta shut her down if you are not moving.
Of course you could get an electric fan and put it on the radiator, they do come in 6 volts.
You could also put in a 160 thermostat or cooler. Add "Water Wetter" to the coolant, mix fresh antifreeze and water with a minumum of antifreeze, then add more antifreeze in the winter time.
You could also open up the port holes so the hot air can escape the engine compartment.
There are all kinds of things you can do. You havent mentioned where the heat needle was on the dash while you were on the highway., and when you pulled into the show.
