Hot Engine 200

I have a 1979 245DL that has recently been getting a little hot in the summer weather, sometimes forcing me to drive with the heat on.
The radiator looks fine, I see no signs of rust or corosion on it, but it is a single core radiator, do I need a double or triple core radiator? Would an aux. radiator fan do the trick?
The heatercore, and water pump have been replaced recently, I am going to change the thermostat for good measure. I'm not too keen on buying a new radiator, but what else can I do?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated
Thanks
