Do you keep adding antifreeze? Do you have the recovery style radiator cap, or the original non-recovery style? Remember, without a recovery system, you can't run as much antifreeze in the radiator as there is no room for expansion. My '65 puked once, and has been fine since then.

Kinda like when you eat some bad food...one puke and you're all better.

Is it building up too much pressure? Maybe you have the wrong rad cap for it. When it's at operation temp, are both rad hoses close to the same temp. If not, the t-stat or a flow issue could be the problem. There could also be an air pocket in there.
