PLEASE HELP. VERY IMPORTANT CAR ISSUES
I recently bought a 94 Ford Mustng GT 5.0 the car is in perfect shape just a few issues under hood. in the mornings when i turn car over it starts up soo slow u can hear engine build up but after that it runs good all day every time i turn her over and also on a good hot day if i drive itfor about 3 miles i see the car builds up to over heat then the guage goes back down to middle.i bought the car and i know it needs a tune up can anyone please tell me what i should get for basic tune up and if that will get car running better.

seems like the car has a different thermostat in it that should be replaced. When it gets hot and drops back down is when the thermostat is finally opening. As far as the starting slow, rebuild it and you will fix all the issues

If by " starts up slow" you mean it cranks over longer before it starts , then yes a tune up could help this out...... plugs , wires, cap, rotor, air filter , and fuel filter.
The over heating could be from an old thermostat that just needs replaced , they get old and start sticking until it reaches a certain point then it will pop open. Or if someone replaced the thermostat at one point and put it in backwards it will do that too.. My car when I first got it did that and I thought it was a faulty thermo , but when I pulled it out someone had put it in facing the wrong direction.
