This is definitely the easier and simpler route! Don't overcomplicate things - you have a running car now just swap good parts for the broken or missing. I'd suggest finding a donor Metro or two with the same color interior and exterior and stripping everything you need all at one time (instead of making lots of trips back to the yard). Then you can replace parts as you have the time until your car looks as good as you can get it.
Once your Metro looks decent and runs well - then you can worry about modding it.
One step at a time,
