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.

@Vince thank you so much for the eBay links
It's the 501 Reynolds with 6 speed freewheel

Hi guys, quick update on this wheel affair.
@Foreigner65 has found an ambrosio clincher super elite durex exactly as the ones I have, but unfortunately is a 36h and mine are 32h
But, thanks to @Vince's link, I grabbed both front and rear with white walled tyres and tubes for a total of 50+10 postage. They are 32h, so I can swap one of those rims and still use my sachs mailard hubs. I've asked photos of the rim wall before buying, and they look more than ok.
