Sounds like a fun project. Just installed a radiator from our hosts and was pleased with the quality. Mine sat for 5 years and I spent $32 to get it running, 16 bucks of that was fresh gas. After I heard it run I ordered parts for a full tune up.

Post up some of your rover ****[edit <---pourn] when you can. Also, the Guns and Rovers site is a great place for series rover knowledge.
