and i want to build a rear wheel. Any thoughts on the best hub, spokes and rims to get?

So, I have a 1985 Peugeot road bike and a lovely thing it is. Recently had a 'gristle' sound coming from the front. Oh good, needs some fiddling to check some stuff. Turns out the bearings were ruined, the grease was basically gravel and of course the cones need replacing.
I have now tried 6 different cones and none of them fit snug with the dust caps and I know trying to find different dust caps to fit the hubs and different cones is impossible.
What do I do? It is the original mallard hub and the wheels are in perfect condition so i really don't want to change them.
Firstly, where can I get the exact same cones for this hub?
Secondly, what is my alternative that isn't buying a new wheel or hub?

Hi all,
I have an old Peugeot bicycle with the original Weinmann alloy brake levers. When replacing the handlebar tape the hoods just fell apart in my hands!
I would like to keep the levers because i think they are beautiful but i was just wondering what modern hoods would fit these levers?
Thanks

have a great ride. supposed to my an awesome route
A few months ago I witnessed a lorry driver almost kill a girl on a bike and then proceed to blame her even though it was 100% his fault. 'You fucking cyclists are all the same' he yelled. It made me realise that those who drive cars don't think of people on bikes as actual people, just 'cyclists'.
I have set up a website to show the faces behind the bikes, to show we are not all just a thing on a bike. Just everyday people who I take a photo of a share a bit about their world.
Please take a look and share it if you like what I am trying to do.
