The radiator was replaced by the A-series Metro unit (both versions throughout its production) but with a bit of ingenuity other more modern (and plentiful) radiators can be made to fit.
Starting a project is great fun; be aware however that there are a huge number of potential problems that will need to be put right. There will ALWAYS be more to do than you think. For a good example, take a look at my Project Zippy rebuild thread. I bought it in 2011 expecting it to be finished within 3 years. It's still in bits!
He's right, I've had mine off the road for about 3 years now, after I put it on my ramp to fix the sloppy gearchange.
Then I thought I'd change the exhaust. Then the fuel tank. Then the rear subframe, shock absorbers, front suspension, instrument panel, seats, brakes, radiator, and I'm thinking about putting bigger wheels on it now...
