Well, now that the Fan Clutch was mentioned, I did some research.

Seems when the clutch is bad, it may not disengage, so the car runs cooler. I was having a cooler engine. A mechanic friend of mine suggested I replace the thermostat, but guess it was the fan clutch.

The radiator, fan clutch and thermostat are all ordered new from Pelican.

Thanks guys -

Next weekend is repair days. Hope the clutch is as easy as others have posted.
