Forget buying a new wheel, just buy a new bike. When the replacement part exceeds the value of the bike itself, it means its time to start over from scratch.

new wheels cost between 50-100$, how much do you think the old WW bike is worth? if the bike is old enough to break 6 spokes, good bet that there's much more things worn out on it.
