I have a very similar Raleigh also from the early 80's. My model is the Kodiak. Looks almost identical.
I converted over to a more modern set of 700c wheels without a hitch. The cantis have plenty of adjustment for that. Also, the rear spacing is 126mm, but it can easily be spread to 130mm.
If I didn't already have 2 touring bikes, I would jump on this. (It's even my size
)
