89 Olds Multiple-Issues

I've got a 89 Cutlass Ciera with a 2.8L V6 with ESTIMATED 65K/miles on it.

About 9 yrs ago (previous owner) it was put nose-in into a ditch full of muddy water.

Since then, the following problems have plagued this car:
Speedometer doesn't work. We've replaced the Speedo cluster twice and still no function.
Rear Elect Heated Window (Defrost) doesn't work.
Takes 3 times to start & stay running...then has a "variable idle".
Cooling Fan stays ON CONSTANTLY.
Torque converter doesn't seem to kick-in at "40" like it's supposed to...but since i'm not sure where 40 is, hard to tell.

We've taken it to the dealer, swapped at least one computer and it still hasn't changed.

Any ideas? the front clip had some parts replaced from the accident.

Thanks a bunch...
