My husband just replace my radiator, water pump, thermostat, and fan (new flex fan) in my '65 Mustang. It is overheating in just a few miles of driving, What could be wrong since it has all new parts? Old hoses are fine, all connections seem to be made. Could something be on backwards?

Could be an air lock in the cooling system, Try bleeding it /a bad new thermostat -The pressure cap is it in good condition?
