I'm getting confused. Is the problem that the A/C cuts out intermittently, or that the car overheats, or both?

For an intermittent A/C I would focus on the slipping belt. For overheating in traffic I would make certain that the AUX FAN in front of the radiator is working properly. Then check for a bad fan clutch, weak tensioner, and if all else fails, replace the radiator. I've changed the radiators in both my 92s and it improved their abilities to cool quite a bit. Radiators seem to lose their efficiency as they age.

What part of Atlanta are you in? I'm up the NE I-85 corridor.
