I am keeping as much as possible of the original setting since I had the crazy idea to fix this thing, put a rack on with 2 bags and start a 1800 km trip, hoping to finish it
Shifters and derailleurs are still the original Sachs huret with a 6sp freewheel but I have also an idea of putting an even older suntour set I have in mint condition
The suntour will accommodate easily 7 sp (original setup was 5sp) as I tried 8 already.

As Vince mentioned and sent links to eBay options - that rear wheel looks bang on what you have.
Now a Campaq wheelset I have is very nice and @£80 not dear too, plus we can talk re 7sp Suntour freewheel too.
Your shifters, are these friction ones, i.e. no clicks, what brand? What rear mech do you have, would it shift 7sp?
