Default 87 Mercedes 300td diesel wagon Over HEATs going over 40 mph

Hi everyone. I had a quick question about a car I'm looking to buy. It's an 1987 300td wagon diesel. Very neat looking car!!! It's got a problem where it starts to overheat when you go past 40 mph. It's got a new water pump so that's not the problem. If anyone can steer me in the right direction, I would appreciate it very much! I know I need to check the fans thermostat and coolant level but is there anything else that it cool be and would it be expensive? This will be my first mercedes so if someone can also tell me where online would be a good place for parts. Ebay?

Thank you!!!
