could be your head or gasket's stuffed.
open the oil cap and see if there's any cream on it, or do a service and see the colour of the oil i.e. black, honey comb or white coffee?
black or honeycome = good
white coffee = bye bye head or gasket or both.
also do the thermostat, radiator cap and new coolant if it's old. cheap and effective.
don't listen to anyone that tells you taking out the thermostat is good. it's not!. i do believe older cars should use different thermostats for different seasons i.e. warmer season, open cooler, colder season, open hotter.
