Sound like you could use the old hub and buy a new rim and spokes nad rebuild.
IMPORTANT: Remove the five speed freewheel block before you cut the spokes to remove the rim. You will need to remove the block to build the wheel and overhall the hub.
Strip the hub down, if the bearings are pitted replace them, maybe replace the axel if the cones are pitted.
Open sport rim will be less then 20 spokes another 10 - 15 and you will have a good soild wheel that as long as teh hub cleans up well will role pritty good.
